So I finished up my TSX retrofit on my car. This is the proper way to do an HID setup. Had to go take some pics of it so enjoy.

1. Color mod on the projector


2. TSX cutoff ftw


3. Trying a little grunge style


4.


5.

I've already adjusted it two more times since that pic was taken, so its better now, but it still needs a tad more tweaking.

It depends on distance, I believe. Did you washer mod it as well? That could be a factor...

No not to hard at all. What really took the longest was the wiring because my dad wanted everything to be perfect so we spent a whole day doing it.

It's hard to capture the cutoff off with a camera. This pic was underexposed a tad, the pic with the correct exposure (according to the light meter) made it look like it was emitting a lot of glare. But trust me, in person its nice and sharp.

Thanks for the comments everyone
