Send me a bunch of money and I'll do them for you. I did a HID retrofit on my Rx7 already.

if you wanna do your own retrofit and don't want to sacrifice your OEM headlights, I have a set of headlights for sale that are ghetto retrofitted with PIAA driving lights

Or you could have them mailed to me, and I'll throw some E46 or A4 projectors in there for you.

Who, me? You'd have to buy the ballast and bulbs yourself. I have no idea how much I'd charge to put them in. I hadn't really thought about it too much. If you want to take a look at what I did with the rx7's popups, there's pictures on http://www.the-phil.com

Look at the HID retrofit topics. They're not painted yet though.

didnt buy the car new. picked it up for the ol lady the other day in Dallas. Ive been trying to find replacement oem lights or trade even for stockers. They work fine but have no high beam. with her driving down these country roads at night i want all the light we can get.

It's unfortunate you don't have high-beams with your retrofit. It looks very clean. Did the projector lens take up that much space that you had to lose your highbeams? Or is it because the chrome was painted all black and doesn't reflect any of the light foward? Just curious cause I kind of like it and if the other guy doesn't want it, I might let go of my OEM headlamps for it.

sorry. i dont know much about them they came with the car. like i said we just picked it up a couple days ago. there IS room below the projectors but no idea what it would take to put brights in. Also i dont think the reflectors have been blacked out, only taken out.

Just found out how they mounted these things. Looks like a good job inside but they broke the mounts or something to where it bolts to the car. maybe you guys with an oem setup can see what im missing or what was broken.
