[tenshi_R]

lol i was trying to squeeze in the projectors from my old headlights into fog space

oh wait!!!!! i can do it now with no ac muahhahaha

 

[nautica_t]

^the mini cooper projo's are still kind of big. but i can't see myself molesting oem raybrig fogs, unless i can find a used set or something than i'll do it, otherwise not worth it.

s2000 retrofit is the most chirp, clean cut off line I've ever seen... they kick ass, but parts are pretty expensive!
TSX retro comes in second
Audi A6

Here's steps you half to do a retrofit!

 

[nautica_t]

s2k are the best, second comes tsx.
bi-xenon is TL

so what i just go to honda and ask the for what ???????headlights or the interals ????

 

[nautica_t]

^you can't just buy the internals, you have to buy whole headlights.

s2k ap2 headlights are 600 a piece brand new.

no dont do that. get hid's i know where to get a cheap par.with my hids i dont need fogs.

 

[tenshi_R]

why is everybody after razor sharp cutoff?
the lights are supposed to be faded so you dont blind oncoming drivers when you go over bumps or a hill

btw how does it look with s2000 retro anyone got pictures?

 

[nautica_t]

you're actually wrong, the sharper the cut off, the more squeezable light output you can get to the line without blinding on coming drivers and people in front of you.

the faded output is for reflective housing that use a normal halogen bulb, that's why you get a soft cut off vs a straight/sharp cut off with a projector.

hope that helps.

HID's will give you a really good light output..cutoff length is good...My company primarily sells HID's, so trust me I know what Im talkin about...The illumination is crazy and you will see a major difference...

ill post pics of my ride here soon..

 

[tenshi_R]

ye thats what i meant i thought the fade had the specific purpose of gradually blinding the oncoming drivers.

agree with keeter i work at the shop everyone havent had a single person switch back to regular lights yet.

as for myself i havent used my hi beams for about 2 years.

 

[catzman]

the reason why people get pissed off at you is because the regular non hid headlight bulbs have different focal point. so when u install HID kit it changes a little and gives you sharper cutoff as opposed to fading line .
so when u run over a bump your car jumps and it blinds the drivers
so please adjust them properly when you do get HID or new headlights.
out of 2 years driving with them i had them not adjusted for first 2 months( and i was one of the few people that had them) i got flashed every tiem i drive
finally got tired and adjusted the headlights and all the FLASHING stopped instantly.

what kind of adjustment do you recommend?

thx
