you and i both

im going to follow soaristo plan

i have some HID lights coming if i win the ebay listing

id really like to be able to have the autoleveling function

i bought halogen lights to practice ...so when i go to do it for real

i have a better idea of what to expect

 

You are going to attempt the auto-levelling? Man, even the dealers are hesitant to do this. Unless you have HIDs already, you will need more wiring and sensors. Noone I know has attempted this so you would be the first.

 

Johnny has OEM HIDS so his car already has all the wires and sensors.

 

Nice. Gotcha.

 

ahh forget the auto-leveling... the less leveling the more flicker!!!

 

yeah johnny, definitely try to put back the autoleveling. i think it's challenging but it's worth a try

 

Unfortunately no....But i haven't given up...i asked Hudini for some advice and will give it another go this weekend...And will also try the headlights as well....Found out how to get to the bolts w/o having to take off the bumper....

You're attempting for auto leveling too? You're nuts.....all i can say lol....

Good luck

 

You having a hard time? mm just put your oven on 265 degrees and let it pre heat, once its pre heated stick your headlight in there for about 10 mins you can actually pull them apart in the oven to see how sticky the glue is ( remember to unscrewd the 3 bolts holding the lense to the housing in the back ). Once the glue is soft enough just pull em apart and have something like a couple pens near you to scoup up the glue b/c it will get all over the place and dont worry its not a big problem unless you get it on your reflective piece b/c that glue comes of easy with goo gone. And for he bumper you dont need to take it of at all. What you have to do is depanding on what side your doing if your doight ur left side then turn the wheel to the right and vise versa. Once you have clearence unscrew the plastic screws holding the mud guard in front of the wheel and pull the plastic back there you will need to remove 3 bolts one is near the side marker and the other 2 are deeper inside but you can see them. Unscrewd all those and 2 on the bottom to get the mud guard on the bottom of from your bumper and open the hood and unscrewd the bolts holding the headlight on top and then you can pull the bumper back enough to get your headlight of.

 

Haven't attempted the headlights yet...i tried doing the taillights last week...and failed miserably lol

 

TLW ur doing q45 projector mod right? if u dont mind me asking how much is the avg for the whole kit projectors, bulb, ballast

im weighting q45s to s2ks

 

well ive seen the projectors go for sale for 150 a side to 550

bulbs ive seen for 70 a pair

and ballast no idea

 

yeah the market fluctuates all the time for projectors just gotta get lucky and find one of those really good deals...IF you want to save money that is

 

hey is there alreayd a hole in the backside of the headlight or do i need to dremel a hole out?

 

i *think* you have to. i don't think the existing hole is big enough?

 

I don't know how small some projectors can get but with most, rominl is right. The OEM hole is not big enough to accommodate the projector, especially if the projector is mounted further back.
