FOR SALE!!
A complete, freshly built retrofit set, made by yours truly.
Quick stats on these:
Brand new, tinted SS lense headlights.
Glosssssy black housings!
White appollo 3 shrouds,
Which wrap around the 3" D2S projectors.
6000 lumens bulbs and full plug n play harness and ballasts
Switchback LED turn signals, plug n play hyperflash resistors included
RGB Multifunction Halos, 3/4 'evil eye' style!
And green demon eyes
The issue - the demon eyes were supposed to be RGB/Multifunction as well, however they only work on the driver for the halos, and only in a green color. Therefore, you either have the demon eyes on with the halos, or just one or the other, . This is due to a simple product malfunction that cannot be fixed, therefore the customer has decided to start a different project.
The halos can be Red, white, blue, green, and any color inbetween and pulse and go through the whole scheme!
These cost nearly 600 in parts alone and can be yours for 640 shipped anywhere in the 48 states, Taking a big loss on time and labor and paint here.
For a cheaper option, we can take out the ballasts/wiring harness for 120 off, or the turn signal setup for 40 off, or both for 160 off.
Please contact me on here ASAP because first come, first serve!
Thanks!

I make and include harnesses for these. They are super simple.

Back of each headlight are red and black wires with quick disconnects. Black = ground. Red = power

Black wires lead to eyelets which you create grounds for under the headlights and bolt in.

Red wire goes from passenger side to drivers side light then into the cabin to one prong on your two prong on/off switch. Then from the other prong goes power wire #2 which goes back into the engine bay, to an inline fuse then an eyelet which goes on your fusebox hot supply.

Thanks rice. I have bass waves retros that I had made in April and I've yet to install them because I'm not good with wiring. I'll have to take a look at them they should be just like yours.

Looking at that diagram it doesn't look complicated I guess the hardest thing is finding a place where to put the wire inside the cabin

Theres a grommet between the clutch and brake pedal that you route it through on the firewall then i suggest dremelling out a location on ur cubby door under the foglight switch for the switch.

Thanks! Ima try to get a better picture of the headlight itself after I clean up the lenses. Had to cut the bezel of course to fit the 140mm halo and painted the whole thing gunmetal. And passive blue demon eyes

With the Canadian dollar being so low right now I've been hesitant to order projectors. The exchange rate certainly doesn't appear to be getting better so I've been hovering over ordering a new set of projectors to do another build. Seeing as I'm still in college for another 8 months I will be on a budget still. I wasn't terribly dissapointed with the ddm v2 projectors, now I've been looking at the TRS "Standard" projectors. With the exchange rate even these are going to cost me close to $100CAD before bulbs. Has anyone used them? They seem like the same sort of projector ddm or anyone else that isn't trs sells. Would certainly get me by until I can eventually build the kind of set I want.

Input guys? Remembering that the mini 7.0 is well out of my price range.
