*pics* of my E55 projector conversion
three more pics, just to see what i'm doin' 
front shot
cutoff, look at the house light to compare standard halogen vs xenon light color and intensity
viceproductions and my bike
will get some shots of the road soon. need to fab the carbon fiber ramair cover thta is extended to accomodate the ballast plugs.
the bixenon part sucks, lol, don't know if I will wire it up

i'm sure he is not done yet. nice work ngng. i am working on a retro on my 600rr; hope it turns out as nice. how were the e55 projectors as far as space goes? i will be using tsx ones most likely...

Nope. Been frosty a few times but not a drop of snow. Its actually been pretty mild here so far.

couldn't find the conneyctor to wire up, and the relay is kind a bitch

ah. my bike's low beam is being replaced with a hella bi-xenon retro, i will make that bitch work hi & lo if its the last thing i do.

wiring the solenoid isnt that hard
first thing, when you hit your highbeams before the conversion, did the low beam stay on or not?
if it did, then its easier to do than if it didnt

nope. I've seen the electrical diagram but, man, I'm not an EE
if you have experience, can you IM me? annularng on AIM.
they way I have it set up now, is high beam = power to xenons, that way I can turn them on after I've started up the bike. I don't have high beams though

I'll try to find my little picture I made up in paint on how to wire the lows and highs to the ballast and solenoid, it would be highly advisable to run the ballasts off relays

yay for paint!
the brown triangle with a line is a diode, which can be had from radio shack, it basically a one-way valve so electricity only flow thru it one direction
from the relay: red goes to the battery, black to chassis ground and yellow to the postive wire on the ballast, for signal, run both the low beam and high beam wire to the same spot so the relay gets signal either way

i knew about the diode part
that's about it. i've used relays before too, so i see how that's working...but, what about for a bike (r6) that turns off the low beams when you switch to high?
