here is another tip:

take video or pics of the rear of the head lights before you disassemble them so you know how they go back together.

Also if you need help on how to remove front bumper let me know.

Make sure you seal 'em up good and then better than that!! I just did a retro and the inside of my lenses fog up pretty bad everytime it rains or if I wash the car. I have to hit'em again

What parts did you purchase for the retrofit? How much did it come out to?

this is info from 21SF he sent:



You need the projectors of choice.

Bulbs to fit those projectors, usually D2S or D4S.

Brackets for the chosen projector from luxurymods

new lights if you chose not to reuse your old ones, depo brand works.

tools: Dremel, hack saw, oven, 10mm socket, 8mm socket, philips screw driver.



Haven't bought anything yet.. im gettin some offers for some sets
