So you got rid of your black GS 300 or did you just get another vehicle?

Damn baller!! you got the 1st gen BOSE surround sound chillin above your breadbasket in your kitchen!! Does that TV have a built in VCR too? oooo-wee you doing it big bro!! hahaha j/K

Seriously i am really needing to do a retro myself but am scared to cut in to my only pair of headlights. A friend gave me some Celica projectors but i am not too sure i want to use them. They have a decent cut-off line though

PM lux mods for those brackets, thats what I did. They said they are so new they have not yet been added to the site.

You can buy high quality used OEM projectors from here as well as a variety of bezels and all the ballasts and bulbs and harnesses' you could ever need.

Looks great. I was gonna do this mod but now I am moving to Japan and cant take my GS

Guess I have to buy an aristo!

Cutoff should look something like this
