Hi, I finally got around to getting my digi-cam - so I'm snapping some pics (couldn't get any progress pics). This is how I redid my HID Retrofit, as well as redid my engine bay wiring (Had the perfect opportunity when swapping in the 3-legged chiwawa of a D15 a while back).

Old HID Retro: Old-School Black Denji's, Hella Bi-Xenon Projectors for BMW, gen4 ballasts (these suck when extremely cold/or slightly wet), modified denji projector harness.
New HID Retro: Depo Projectors (Same as Denji's) Audi A6 Single-Xenon Projectors, Hella gen3-styled ballasts (not official hella, but they work), Completely reworked wiring (integrated into OEM harness).

Wiring:
-I mounted the relay (and fuses) from the engine bay under the dash now (with a 12v running from the battery, also hidden - somwhat).
-I ran all the wires through the fenderwells (above the fender guards), and I tried to do it as neatly as possible, while leaving just about everything easily accessible (should it need to be).
-The "trigger" wires for the relay come off the light switch directly (I forgot the pins, but with a multi-meter you should find it), I also ran a diode btwn the hi/low wires - so when I flick on the highbeams the lows don't get cut out (same effect as the projector harness, but much much simpler and smaller).
-I used 12ga wire for everything related to the hid harness, and fused evereything (can't remember the size 30a fuses I believe to each ballast).

Headlights (The reeeeaaaallly fun part):
-I'll post a writeup on this part when open up the headlights to swap the denji housing/lense (better condition than the ones I have now). I could type up as much as I want, but the pics will help a lot more.
-notes on the headlights: The bases of the projectors all seem to be identical, even similar on the newer dual-projector setups (haven't verified it yet). I chose the depo/denji-style projectors because I always loved that style on the EH civics.
-The A6 projectors need to sit far back, so you can clip the hella ballast/ignitor. The gen4 ignitors are WAY to large, I had to chop up most of the headlight to use them on my old setup. The A6 projector and Gen3 style ballast/ignitor seems ideal for the 92-95 civic projector headlights.
-Only thing I'm missing is the rubber boots covering up the back like OEM (another junkyard trip).

Some pics (excuse the D15, need to drive the car around):

hope this stuff helps someone, when I get off my lazy *** I'll get some pics of the insides of the headlight assembly + do the writeup.

looks nice... shoulda mounted the ballasts somewhere else though, maybe lower or out of sight or something. the take away from that clean engine bay look

 

Yeah, definitely should mount those ballasts behind your bumper, or behind your fenders to clean it up.

I was thinking of behind the fenders, maybe on the fender brackets? I'm thinking they're goingn to be in 2 different locations (maybe p-side bumper, d-side fender?).
How are you guys mounting your ballasts, just curious for some ideas. thanks.

I gotta move that catch can from the strut tower, maybe I can get it to go where the charcol canister was (gotta see where it lines up for drainback when I drop it back in).
