Del Sol H.I.D. retro fit project
[IMG]I've recently started retro-fitting some H.I.D. projectors into some Del sol headlights. as a lot of you Del sol owners know, it's hard to find (if not impossible) to find Del sol headlights with even normal halogen projectors, let alone H.I.D.'s. I started out with cheap eBay headlights and a H.I.D. kit snagged from a Lexus gs 300. the projectors i chose are e45 hybrid's, bi-xenon projectors usually found in BMW 3-series. my friend and myself cut the back of the headlights with a rotary tool, was kinda time consuming, but was the best way to get the size for the projector to fit. the projectors didn't come with the bezels when i bought them, so i made some from good ol funnels. not too sure they hold up to the heat from the bulb, but we'll find out. the projects not even half way done yet, I've still got a lot of work to do, but i think I'm off to a good start. any feedback (maybe someone who's done a retro-fit before) would be great. I'll keep updating the thread on my progress, so keep checkin back 
the headlights (before)


the projectors

the home-made bezels (yeah that's right...from funnels)

the ballasts

the headlights with the projectors mock fitted inside them, still a lot of work so this definitely won't be what the final product will look like, but it's a rough idea.

yeah i think they will too, i've found some metal mixing bowls and i think i'm going to use the plastic funnels as a templet and cut the bowls to fit.
