Well, it took me a few months to get off my ass and finally start, but I've made some progress.
Bought some "Eagle Eye" brand lights from eBay. Cheap enough (about $145.00 or so with crappy expensive shipping to Hawaii):
Horizontal/Vertical adjustment screw (top corner), Left/Right adjustment screw (bottom corner):
To open up the light, I baked it at 250* in the oven on a cookie sheet for about 10 minutes. Beware of the glue...anywhere it gets on the plastic it sticks! To disassemble the light, you need to remove this small, metal peg from the top corner of the headlight housing:
There is also a screw underneath the sealant pictured here:
Light opened up, front view:
Halogen reflector is held in by these plastic adjustment bases:
Inside base:
Plastic bases removed from reflector housing:
Outside base:
Full view of housing holding reflector:
Side view of reflector mounting in housing:
Opposite view of reflector mounted in housing:
I dremeled out the inside portion of the reflector, leaving only the ring, front view:
Rear view of reflector housing:
Projector wouldn't fit deep enough into the reflector for mounting purposes, so I had to dremel some of the top portion of the reflector off. Here I made some lines to base my cuts upon:
Different view:
Cut the reflector and got this:
Lined up the projector in the housing and drilled mounting holes into the reflector:
Next, I have to go and get some long nuts, bolts, lock washers and other items to mount the projectors to the reflector base.
I'll add some pics of the projectors, ballasts, wiring harness and bulbs later.
Questions?
