Crisp white light shining through the projector. Using Phillips D2S 85122+ for the bulb.

Plastic lens cover back on and sealed up. The headlamp in the background is up next. Just removed the cover earlier today.

The back of the headlamp with the stock rubber cover for the low beam light with an aftermarket wire harness attached to the bulb. Very tight seal around the harness. Should provide good moisture protection.

wow that's great! i did a projector retrofit two weeks ago and i don't have pictures yet. looks very well done compared to mine. i used e46 bixenon projectors so they were harder to make fit than the tsx ones. it was also hard to make room for the bixenon shield. can't wait to see them on your car.
