well, I miss my old eyelids enough, and seen enough people do it, that im tackling a retrofit.

My Infiniti projectors arrived today so i dug right in, while i had it open i figured i might as well paint the bezel too

(i will be selling my halo projectors once i have this done)

Im not sure yet, id prefer to keep them local, as shipping on these could be rough cuz im in canada.
They have been painted, and they have some grinding done to allow for HID return leads,
so its kind of an "as is" sale, because they have been modified.
they will be sold with a set of Eurolite ultra white halogens in the lowbeam, and regular H1s in the high.

Is there a way to just replace the projector in the ebay halos with the infinity projector? I think that would be cool.

yup wouldnt be hard.
if you have more bucks to spend i would suggesting going with an S2000 projector, or an Acura TSX projector.
those are kinda the cream of the crop as far as cheaper retrofit projectors.

quality of output and cutoff basically.
not to say other projectors are junk....but this is more where people get really serious about color mods, mirror mods, cutoff flare all that fun stuff.

ill dig for some pics for ya



heres the purty sharp blueish cutoff of the S2000 projectors.

That cut off is insane. Now i get it.

Ive decited that the next car i get will probably be another cobalt (SS next summer) so im gonna try to do some mods that i can transfer over to my new cobalt when i get it so lights and stuff like that are gaining priority. Im gonna transefer my cobalt now to my gf when i get an SS so she will get all new stock stuff form the SS. If it all works out.

Yup little bit of wiring work goin on.

after i painted it and put it all back in, I just stuck the little SS badge to the bottom of the projector before i put the whole light back together
its the one from inside on the dash, so now i have to go buy another one from the dealership haha.
