Does anyone on here know how to convert a GSR headlight to HID? I bought the HID kit but if I just install it into the standard housing I will blind everyone.

Anyone ever done one?

You need the projector lenses etc. If retrofitting. Or a set of headlights with projectors already in them?

Doesn't the MR come with projectors factory? Or even maybe the higher up model RA. Maybe you can find a set of factory projector headlights and install them and sell your current ones?

Ralliarts (old ones anyway) come with projectors. MR comes with them also, and I believe the GSR has an option to get them. So you can certainly buy the housings already built in. No need to redesign what's been done. Just expect a hefty price tag.

GSR's in Canada do not come with HID's. Also only the premium Ralliarts came with HID's similar to EVO MR's.

You have a few options.
(1) Buy the depo style OEM headlights with projectors for your HID kit. You can find both headlights on ebay for around $300. I have seen these on another EVO and personally could not tell the difference.

(2) You can buy used Evo X HID's like this on Ebay:

(3) Order them brand new OEM from Mitsu for about $600-$800 a side.

Personally I am just going to order the original Evo X MR HID's when the price goes down a bit lower.
