I was looking into doing this conversion , but I was just wondering where you guys are getting the BMW projectors from ? And about how much can I expect to pay for them ?

 

check out http://www.hidplanet.com. Tons of info on that site, plus they have skafia's audi retrofit for integras as well.

 

if i were u i would do s2k projectors. Alot of color and nice cutoff line. But if your on a budget then get valeo projectors. They also have nice coloration

 

where would one get these items? I'm thinkin of doin a HID app as well. Oh yeah, sorry to hijack the thread

 

click the link that was posted above. they have an online store that sells projectors. also you can click on the forums and there is a classified area there as well.

 

yeah try http://www.hidplanet.com. or egay bought my first set from hidforum.com (valeo ece) and bought my new s2k projectros on hidplanet.com. people there are hella koo, im a member. check it out

Yeah, I was the one who posted the link. I haven't found much of help though.

 

there's always some here and there... ebay, HT, you know....

why 745 specifically? no audi? no other ones?

 

because I heard that the audi retrofit requires more customization; the 745i retrofit is basically almost a direct swap-in. But how about the s2k projectors.....are alot of you guys running them ? How do you like them ?

uhm...no mater what kinda projectors you use, you will need to dremel the existing bracket on you teg, whether if its audi, bmw, s2k...well there are some projectors that are not going to fit perfectly wid your bezel, meaning some projectors might be bigger or some are smaller. but the bmw projectors requires the same amount of work then the audis

 

The Audi A6 projectors shown in Skafia's how-to, as well as the S2K projectors, require spacers to bring the projector forward so it will sit correctly in the stock projector bezel on the headlight lens. Unfortunately this makes the rear part of the projector with the bulb sit deep inside the rear part of the headlight housing.

BMW 7-series projectors, which are the same as Mercedes E-class bi-xenon projectors, more commonly called E55's (although all E-class models are available with bi-xenon) are a much better fit for Integra headlights than the A6's. The E-class projector's dimensions match the Integra projector dimensions almost exactly (overall length and lens diameter), so no spacers are needed. This also makes the rear part of the projector extend outside the headlight housing, just like stock. Another plus is that the E-class/7-series projectors already have mounting holes on the flange, and you don't have to do any drilling on the projector itself like you do on the A6's.
