Finished another HID retrofit...

Adams91LX · Mar 18, 2012

I got another retrofit finished up...

This setup was much larger than the last Mini Morimoto retrofit I did...

Ultra-smoked lenses, FX-R projectors, Ocular shrouds... these projectors are huge, barely fit inside the extremely large fox headlight housing.

any pics of them on the car?

Adams91LX · Mar 18, 2012

no... sorry... these aren't for me.

Did them for a member on here... up in Oregon, I'll see if he will post some pics when he gets them in.

ViperPunk · Mar 18, 2012

please do, I want to see how those turn out cuz its looking pretty neat!

Adam, you done any 94-98 retrofits? I'm hoping to do a set on my 95 eventually.

Adams91LX · Mar 18, 2012

Have I attempted? No.

Will I successfully retrofit a set whenever you are ready to send the parts, yes.

great work man, whats the price around 4-500 to do it ?

Adams91LX · Mar 18, 2012

300 ish for the projectors...

and my price depends on the projectors, how fast you need them, and honestly, I can work with you on price. SN is family.

Mini Morimoto's are really nice and a really clean retrofit.

Hmmm, odds are I know this person. Is it Brandon?

Yessir.

Have you done a how-to on this in the past? Seems like I remember you doing something like that. Would be good info in the Really Common Questions Thread.

Adams91LX · Mar 19, 2012

I did... I think my first retrofit was around 2007.. I'll search around for it. Really though, the aftermarket has changed completely since then. I was piecing a kit together with BMW parts.. Now there are entire projector packages complete with relayed harness. So much better.

Looks good man. I've done a few retrofits in years past, so I know the work that goes into doing it. Sold my e46 setup on Corral last year. I'll miss the great light output at night, that's for sure.

5LiterWes · Mar 19, 2012

Hmm, really like the look of those. I might be contacting you in the future.

Adams91LX · Mar 19, 2012

Race- you and mustang5l5 helped me out a ton when I did the first set. It has come a long long way from the cutting splicing and homemade fiberglass shrouds.

I am always up for a retrofit. PM or reply here.

TOOLOW91 · Mar 19, 2012

thanks adam I'll keep it in mind !!

Yea, that's true. The parts are so much more affordable these days too. Makes doing the retrofit a more attainable modification.

Adams91LX · Mar 19, 2012

My first setup was over 800.

Haha different strokes for different folks, right there. Unless they also made my coffee in the morning and wiped by ass after a dump, no way in hell would I drop 8 Benjamins on a set of headlights. Hell, my fog light sockets have been empty for years because I'm too cheap to put new fogs in after one shattered when hit by a rock. Got no problem spending money on speed parts, though.

I'll give you props though, projectors are definitely nice to have at night and look good, too. Just too salty for my taste, I guess.
