Hi
Does anyone kno where i can find projector headlights for my 98 Lude or do i make them myself, and wat projector do i use??
Thanks

 

me 2... need info

 

yea you have to do them yourself... and the projectors you can use vary a lil bit.... here are mine.. i used projectors from a e46 M3 BMW... and the HID kit is BMW ( philips ) too.. as well as the bezels which had to be cut to fit in.. as for info, use teh search button..

 

Would you happen to have a how-to on how to do this???

 

i kinna spaced out when i did this, and didnt do a how-to... but its pretty simple... buy a HID kit, and some projectors, and all you have to do is remove your front bumper, and headlights, bake them in the oven at about 275 for less than 3 min.. make sure you put foil down underneath, pry them open w a flathead screwdriver, and then seperate them.. luckily my projectors were the right size, so all i had to do was use a dremel tool with the plastic cutting bit, and cut out the right sized hole, which was about the same size as the round plastic hole on the back of the headlights, where the regular H1 bulb goes into.. insert the projector and fasten it in... as for the HID's the ballast and ignitor were already connected, so all i did was splice the low beam headlight wires into the ballast.. any more questions, just PM me...

 

How did you attach the projectors to the housing? Glue?

 

self tapping srews, a custom aluminum bracket and washers...

 

did have to use JB weld for the bezels tho... to stick them on the front of the projectors.. b/c there is no way to mount them... it works miracles..lol

 

how did you know how to aim them? eyeballed it?

 

pretty much.... just aimed them in my garage, and then took it for a drive, and then adjusted them if they needed it...
