Looks familiar....lol
Great job! It came out very nice and I'm glad I could help. I'm in the process of changing my projectors. I'm retroing a set of TL's with ZKW lens and I'm also adding a CCFL halo angel eyes ring around the projector (BMW style). I'll post pics when complete ![]() http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...246402536&rd=1 |

Great job on the retrofit! Looks great. Did either of you use anything to fill in the space around the malibu covers?

Amazing stuff and I'm sure many with benefit from your thoroughness.
You are quickly becoming the 3rd gen poster child. P.S. what ever became of your cracked rim situation? |

As for the cracked rim, it's sitting in my garage as we speak. Got a new rim on the 4Runner now. I learned the hard way what happens when you wheel rocks w/ aluminum wheels . Granted, that has not stopped me from still doing it, I've just learned to pick my lines better. ![]() The wiring wasn't all that bad. It actually took more time to remove the airbox and battery (to mount the ballasts) than it did to run all the wiring and connect everything together.

![]() Rockslide: How on earth did you get the projectors and ballasts for only 285, let alone with a set of lights?!?!?! I figured you must have spent over a grando! Nicely done, man.

Very sharp looking mod there... How does the plastic of those malibu lights stand up to the heat of the projectors? it looks to be just black styrene plastic... I want to see what the angle eyes looklike when you get there axeman..

That's tempting, but I'd have to charge you an arm and a leg. I put more time in this retro than I ever planned too. I could have done them much quicker, but with as busy as I stay, I was doing good just to get an hour's worth of work in on a Saturday! Might be a while, before I get around to doing another retro... Thanks. Oh and there is no plastic involved in this retro. The covers themselves are a thin metal. That black plastic piece I removed from the inside of the cover is discarded.
