I think you need to read up some more on HID's. I would not want to use those headlights to retrofit. Try looking for a cheap used set. You will not be able to reuse you pnp ballasts unless you get a different connector that will allow you to use a D2S base bulb (or whatever base the projector has) instead of a 9006 base bulb. TSX projectors are small and would not work as well with the GS. GSteg used TSX before and decided to go with LS430's.

Search for JNC. He has LS430 VS LS460 output.
