Nice. You should also do the color mod with washers.

I'm doing this TSX retro right now and it is a PITA PITA PITA!

Lots of grinding and fabricating. Thanks to my bestfriend: Dremel.

Your lights need to be aligned. The second picture tells me this.

I have TSX projectors in my car.

That's probably his before picture when he had just an HID kit in his stock projectors.

Hey Tommy,

I just got done with my TSX retro on my SC, It is on the lowest setting but the beam looks like its blinding from 300 feet away. Is yours like that?

Nice job. How is the projector fitment? Was there much modification to the back of the headlight housings? I'm saving some money to do a Bosch E46 retro but would like something to compare with.

Shoot. I need (want) TSX projectors. Where does everyone find their deals? I saw some but this guy wanted $300 for the ballast, bulb, and projectors.. I just want the projectors.
