Projector Retrofit on my Redline

Lots of work, took me about 5 hours to complete them both, probably would have taken me longer if I hadn't practiced on an old headlight the day before. But, here ya go.

Have a little adjusting to do on the drivers side, but I was so tired last night that I said **** it, and I'll deal with it later.

You know I'm gonna get it fixed. I was just tired of running up and down the stairs to my apartment last night to do adjustments.

Wow! I'm usually not a fan of LED strips on headlights where they don't belong but that looks really good. Nice job on the retros and clean Redline!

No problem, man. I'm gonna try and convince my buddy with a silver Redline to do the same thing with his headlights. I'm sure it won't take much convincing once I show him the pictures. haha

Gotcha. Yeah, I don't know how I feel about the LEDs on Cobalt headlights.. I don't think it flows with the shape of the headlight at all. Redlines look sweet with them on the other hand.

Yeah, his won't get LED's, he doesn't like them on cobalt lights either. But he's gonna have me do the projectors on his.
