I am in the process of acquiring everything needed for acura TL projectors with rare zkw (e46) bixenon lense swap. I just picked up some (gunmetal chrome)crossfire shoruds which should look good in my oem CTR headlamps.

for those that don't know the lense from e46 bmw Canadian 330ix is the only car that comes with zkw bi-xenons (clear lense). when that lense is swapped on TL projectors the result is a ultra-sharp cutoff at a very long distance.

I am looking for people that have mounted TL projectors in 96-00 civic headlamps for some advice on mounting...I hope to retain my oe city light socket & need tips for mounting

 

bumpage

 

I can't help you yet, but do you know where I could find some more ZKW lenses?

 

i've seen it done but i dont know what kinda lenses were use

you'd have to cut the bottom out to fit the bi-xenon motor thingy these things barely fit

lol this is a time consuming project lol

 

Nice, daym you also got them lenses to, kool!, id be happy just to get the projectors. anyways i did a retro on mines just about to add a heavy duty harness. mines still single beam consisting of evo projectors giving from my homie. and g35 hid kit. my only concern for the bi-xenon is the wiring. after its done and over with could you go over the wirings.

have fun

 

I have a hi-low kit already just need to tsp to the red wire on projectors with highbeam wire...black is a ground. bulbs plug right in since my kit used d2s bulbs with h4 adapters. & yes my kit came with relays & grounds

wow, thats a sharp cutoff. Good work man

 

will have more progress pics this weekend.... any tips OR links for aiming & mounting straight?

 

are you a member at HIDplanet.com? If so i have a whole page that is set up for when i mounted my TSX projectors in my 96-98 headlights.
I know you asked for TL, but with pics of how mine are mounted might help.
