Default FS: Retrofitted headlights. TL & TSX Quad Projector Setup.

Ok, just posting this up to see if there is going to be a confirmed buyer. I'll pull the off the car when there is a committed buyer that is ready to pay. For now, they are still on the car and will stay that way until I get a confirmed buyer. I will repolish the lenses and clean everything up before shipping out. I've used these on my car for the past 6 months and it's time for me to build something that looks a bit more aggressive so I'm letting go of this set of headlights.

Details:
-Acrua TL Bi-Xenon Projector in the low beam housing. Modified for greater blue cutoff. The cutoff band is very nice and deep. Custom fiberglassed shroud(it took a LOT of work and time to do this). In case you don't know a Bi-xenon projector is capable of acting as a low beam and high beam unit.

-TSX Projectors in the high beam. It's been completely changed up. The rear bowl was replaced with a H1 bowl to accomodate a halogen bulb. The front has been completely molded into the bowl on the stock headlights. This projector is just here for looks mostly. I don't even hook it up because the TL projectors do a fine job of keeping the road lit. In short, this projector has been modified to be a high beam unit utilizing a H1 bulb.

-Headlight housings are the 01+ style with green tint housing. The turn signals have been cleared out. No condensation or leaking at all. One tab was cracked, but I've repaired it. I've also installed the CCFL halo rings in the high beam housing.

Total price to replicate this set of headlights would be around $900-1000 just for the parts(Two pairs of projectors, headlight housings, CCFL ring kit). No bulbs, ballasts, or labor cost is included in that price.

Sale price for this set of lights is $1200 shipped. If you want bulbs and ballasts, I can throw in a brand new set for $200 more. You can pick the color K of the bulb.

EDIT: If you opt to get the ballasts and bulbs. I can wire everything up and have the ballasts mounted so it will be plug and play for your car. Just plug it in and be ready to go. Otherwise, you will have to find your own set of ballats and wire them up yourself.

Anyways on with the pix!






Pix of when I was still putting it together.


Lights on my car VS my sister's stock GS.


Low angle shot with only the rings on. They are very bright and are easily visible even on a sunny day.

These projectors have AAAAWESOME output!!!


I'll let the pictures speak for themselves....


A shot of the cutoff. It's hard to capture on camera but it has a very nice blue/purple flicker at the cutoff.

Q45 in low beam, 3" high beam projectors, halo rings in the high beam housing only, smoked black housing, and some eyelids painted white. This should be make for a pretty aggressive looking setup

Just an extra note for any of you wanting to buy this setup. These lights are in a non-hid housing. You will lose the auto level system if you use these in your factory HID equipped car.
