Yeah, I saw that one. I'm asking about the TL projectors though. That's from an Audi.

It's possible, tough to do for a first retrofit because I believe they are bixenons.

Look for TSX projectors for a similar but easier retrofit

Why are bixenons harder? I'm new to this hid thing. The reason I'm asking about TL is because I might be able to get a set for pretty cheap. My friend has a set of cracked headlights that have good projectors in them.

Also the TL's are a 3" projector, so making them fit into the housing may be a little more difficult with the Integra housing having minimal space to work on.

They're bigger

It's something else to wire if you want the bixenon feature.

You can probably get them to fit, i mean the term "retrofit" implies that there will be customization and creativity. Bi-xenon's projectors are usually bigger because they have the solenoid to pull back the cutoff shield.
