Well I just received everything I need for my M45 retrofit. I really have to thank Tony from Luxury mods hes been really helpful and the brackets that the projectors are in are really good... I Just got everything in the mail today so I will be updating with pics as they come along..

 

nice! looking forward to the end result

 

u bought new headlights too?? or using the ones on your car?

 

I bought some from ebay... They were Only 100 bucks for the two... and since i never did this before i figured i didnt want to mess up my only headlights...

I am too... ill do some more before and after pics once im finished. Just didnt want to put up the before pics cuz who really wants to see that lol

 

also wondering if i should remove the amber lens or not.... hmmm

 

Might as well, it looks way better. How much did you pay in total for all the parts?

 

Yea take'em out

I highly recommend getting some amber LED's to fit in there Thats what I did, and the look fantastic

(click pic for video )

 

nice I just purchased a bunch of stuff to do mine as well..

 

which projectors did you get?

 

m45 projectors

 

M45 projectors look the best with the 01+ green tinted headlights because the projectors have a greenish tint themselves. Would look great with your green window tint and brakes, Thomas!

Denso ballast- 90
Clear lenses- 40

sorry i wasnt able to start today. I found out my sons mother is getting her appendix removed and I need to take him for a few days. going to try to start tomorrow. hopefully i can get this done im so eager... another question... is a relay harness really necessary if my car came with halogen headlights? i get mixed reviews on them... saying that the gs doesnt really need them.

 

Which amber LED did you use? I'm using a chrome/amber bulb I had laying around and it sucks during the daytime.

 

I've been running HID's for over 5 years, never needed a harness for the low beams.
