Thanks man.
I might get off my ass and mount the FX-Rs tonight.
Still need to tweak that one E55 a bit more.

Got the FX-Rs mounted tonight. I gave up on thinking of ways to mount them to what was left of the high beam reflector. Instead I just mounted them right to the headlight housing. Tight fit for sure, I need some more sealing washers. I'll add nuts on top and some lock tight to hold them in place.




Tomorrow after work I'm going to sort out the alignment issue and if I can, aim them.
Hopefully by the end of the weekend I'll be ready to seal them up again.

I was browsing dsmtuners.com and found the below...

Would look better if it went all the way across the head lights.
User azdave on tuners has some all the way across, looks good imo.

Thats also the guy that swapped an evo 8 engine into his car..although some ppl claim his pics are shopped.

Demon Eyes anyone?


Aiming this weekend, getting ready to seal them, just waiting on LEDs and then I can finish them up.

I started on the wiring of the lights tonight. The E55s will be run off the factory wiring. DSMs have very beefy head light wiring and relays stock so I will be using that instead of creating another harness.


Plug and play too.


Just need some split loom and the E55 harness is complete.

For the FX-Rs I'm building a completely new harness with independent switches.
PedroDaGr8 on HIDPlanet helped me with this so my hat is off to him. Only change is I will be running a separate switch for the high beams instead of one switch.


The capacitor is there to prevent flickering of the ballasts when I switch from low beams to high beams.

The main battery feed, need to add an inline fuse still. Thought I picked on up, guess not.


Relays and relay connectors.


I will not be using pin 87A on the relay so I cut the wire on the harness and capped it off.


Lastly, I extended the bi-xenon wires on both projectors. These will be run inside the housing and pass through a factory hole, just need to get the right size grommet.


Going to order the LEDs and some weather pack connectors this week. Should have this wrapped up very soon.

I bet you can't wait to have everything finished

how did the aiming go? aiming can be a pain in the butt sometimes

demon eyes are cool, too bad we can't run them on the road. great for show!!! I run a similar "demon" eyes setup for kicks.

I still need to get them on the car to aim them 100%. The first time was a failure and really disheartened me about the whole project. I have them living room aimed at about 10-15ft.

Hopefully tonight I won't be too lazy and I'll go out and check them on the car at 25ft.

A teaser, update, demon eyes are done but I need to reaim my lights now.

stupid question.
Is that just a LED that makes them red?

Yup, just an led mounted at the bottom of the projector. It's wired to a separate swith inside the car.

damn, I should get some made up

It's really easy to do. We'll see how long the leds last though, heat is the enemy of leds. The hids do kick out a fair amount of heat so time will tell.

Here's a night time shot of both lights with the Demon eyes on.

Looks crazy, I still cannot picture how all this will turn out with the lense back on and back on the car and all :S
