Official Retrofit Thread

Thanks!
Lucky you! I took some pics this morning. I gotta re-seat the drivers side bulb... it looks a little off. Again sorry for shitty pics!! Gotta find my damn camera charger.. I'll take more pics tomorrow.




So the TYC headlights are very brittle on the reflectors and a pain to get off their ball and socket joints. Looks like I will be fixing these with JB Weld and snap them into my OE headlights and run halogens while I use the OE reflectors to attach my EvoX-Rs to and snap them into my TYC headlights. I thought of using my Mini H1s on the TYC reflectors, but what's the point if I'm just gonna be taking them out again?

Yeah, when I did my Mini H1s with my OEM headlights, they slipped off like butter. I have a heat gun, but somebody's borrowing it and never returned it. That last one is extremely hard. I'll also learn not to pull on the entire reflector. Instead, stick something underneath the black socket and pry it off the ball. One thing to note, the TYC headlights don't have any tint on them at all where as the OEM lights do. Kinda dumb to have any tint on the headlights. At least my EvoX-Rs will be shining at full potential while my Mini H1s have been compromised by a slight tint.
when you re-seat the lens back on the headlight after your retro project, do u have to do anything special to the high beam solenoid and /or halo wires when you put it in the oven to soften the glue? i dont want the melt those wires or anything..
mike ill pm you shortly... i had a lifes upset yesterday afternoon and last night so i didnt feel like answering to anyone or anything so ill get it to you today along with my order info and the specifics.
