yes but ask jackolope or anyone who's done it .. it's a 500-600 for parts deal... thats if you use the lights you have on your car.. there's a reason ibz trl is expensive, not that I would pay for it but it's still expensive

true, but if all I wanted to do was put 1 projector in each headlight and not use HIDs... it wouldn't cost much more than $150ish from what I could tell by looking on eBay.

ok so go find me tsx projectors for 150... and all the stuff needed to mount it and such .. and there's no reason to retro fit less you're gonna use HIDs it's not worth the money when you have to switch the bulbs you run and everything

INSTALLED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I do not have any outdoor pics yet......but I want to clean the car first.

Here ya go:

A direct comparison between the old projectors and the new ones. You can see the size difference between the projectors.


And here is a pic with the projectors off and just the halos on and the upper light bar and the LED's. They look AWESOME and are really bright!!!!


A close up of the headlight. NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I did not put the HID's in because there was an issue with fit with the bulb. The bulb was a little long and pushed the rubber cover up a bit on the back and it did not fit too well. I will have to figure something out.

ok, go to retrofitsource and pickup a pair of FX Bi-xenons for $75 and some HID ballasts and bulbs for $160, so that's just under $250 shipped and mounting hardware isn't expensive at all.

edit: wow those are nice! thanks for the pics, how about some daytime pics when you get the chance... pure awesome!

do the halogens appear to be any better in these projectors compared to the old style?

also, in your opinion, are you happy with the chrome or do you wish you had the black ones instead?

The halos on the new projectors are MUCH brighter then the old ones. And I have no regrets buying the chrome........it looks awesome.
