Does anyone know of any SOCAL shop that has experience doing HID retrofits? I have an EG with the 1st gen Denji projectors and interested in doing HID's the right way. Any feedback appreciated.

Forget So Cal retrofitters. You need to hit up Bjorn at Custom Lightz. He just finished a color-modded TSX projector retro in my 2000 GSR headlights and it turned out incredible. I went to their shop and saw the sickest retro's being done on 06 Si headlights and another on 03 TL-S headlights. At least give them a call and weigh your options.

There's daytime pix of my car on their site. I have yet to take any night time pix. I'll post some up as soon as I can get out to take them.

I provided my own projectors, bulbs, and ballasts, so his labor fee including color mod was $250.

 

The work looks great...but since this is my daily driver, it would be more convenient for me to have it done locally. So if anyone out there has heard of a shop that does retrofits in the greater LA area, I would really appreciate it.

 

yea me too, looking for someone to do my retrofits also.

 

i just had custom lights make me a harness for my retro. They helped me with a lot of stuff and answered some Q's i had. Def. recommend them. They are located in Virginia

Another thread to praise Bjorn and CustomLightz...i'm all over that! Like it has been said, Bjorn and Rich at CustomLightz are not only great at what they do but some of the best people to interact with. I had my CTR Headlights retro'd w/ S2K projectors and they did an amazing job. I'll be going back to them this winter for another project to be done! I can't say enough about their work and overall excellence behind what they do. (P.S.) If you wanted to look, they're are pics of my car as well on they're site, it's a 2000 Black Civic Coupe

Edit: I know you're looking for one in SoCal but just remember that CustomLightz is always an option

be ready to spend $$$ if you want quality retro

 

Thanks for the replys...I will get in contact with Customlightz and see what my options are. If I can't find a local place, I guess I can throw on my stock headlights on for now if I decide to ship out my projectors to get it done right. I feel spending money to do things right the first time is far more valuable than getting a "deal" and end up spending more just to fix.

 

Avoid HID Tech like the plague... they charged some guy on another board 1400 for a retrofit (I guess he's the idiot for paying that much.)
