Decided to play around with my new Canon S5 and my retrofit... My gf got me E46 Singles, Ballast, and 4300k bulbs... etc.

I had my friend cut some adapter plates out of 6061 aluminum.

Here are a few pics, I did get to get some wall shots yet, sorry

Oh and thanks to dopesc for sending me templates, it helped a lot!

 

Nicee! how does the cutoff look like with the stock headlight lenses on?

 

Very nice! How did you seal them back up? You use new silicone, or just heat up the old stuff?

 

Nice brackets!

 

And thank you for sending me the template

I reused the old stuff, which suprisingly has worked very well in my last retrofit (diff car).
I reused the rubber boot in the rear for sealing the rear of the projector.

I still need to buy E46 shrouds, but thats another time.

 

Looks very nice.

 

Here are a few extra pics. Before anyone says anything... I AM aware that they are aimed too high. I just wanted to grab a few pics. I am also going to color mod the projector too when I have it apart next time!

Im still trying to learn my camera... Its been a few days and I think I am getting better...

 

how shu-weeett it is

 

Your projectors are aimed a bit too high....


I'm jk. Looks good. I just wished your gf had gotten you some TSX projectors instead

 

cool - how does the cutoff compare to the original factory projectors?

 

That's looking good!

My mate's hooking me up with a set of RX330 headlights (dunno if they are AFS or not though, is there any way to tell?). Hopefully I can get the ball rolling on my retrofit soon too.

 

ECE shield/projector lense > DOT Shield/projector lense

The cutoff should be a lot sharper compared to the dot cutoffs.

 

HUH???

Sharper than this??? AP1 s2k shown

 

That looks clean!! Nice work

 

Lookin' real good!
