2Ga HID Retro (Number 3) - November 02, 2015 12:52 pm UTC
Never really did a thread about this and since I'm finishing it up now (finally) I figured I'd share.
This is retrofit number 3 for my car. I've always been trying to achieve a quad retrofit which is incredibly difficult do to the small size of our headlights.
Number one was a fail, I don't even think it went on the car for more then a week. These were 2Ga housings with E55 projectors and FX-R projectors.
Number 2 was what most people would have seen the car with. 4 FX-R projectors, 50W ballasts and 5K bulbs. I never did wire up the second set of projectors/ballast if I remember right. It did look wicked with the red paint shields for the passive demon eye though.
Enter my 3rd and final retrofit. In the beginning I gave up trying to do a quad and decided to cram the best projector in there, Acura TLs.
Pile of parts:
TL slope projectors (no mods at all)
Clear Lens
E46R Extended Shrouds
Morimoto 5000k bulbs
Cree P4 amber and white LEDs for DRL and Turns
Sharp Regulators
Boosted Bosch Ballasts
Noyaka Yellow Bulbs for DRL
