did they offer the kit for FCs?>
I remember there being talk about, aint going to go through a 28 page thread that seems to be alot of dick swinging

 

They are finishing the run of them now. Only 15 of us ended up paying for them.

most guys with $2k cars aint spending $800+ on headlights

really impressive what some people come up with , wonder if we have the room behind the lights for something like that

 

basic headlights and 3k light bulbs for the fog lights are best setups.

are cars are too old to look good with HID's IMO

 

yeah ... but i can't see **** at night with the oems, almost hit a deer one night cause i couldnt see a damn thing in the rain..i might just end up going with the ebay black housing projectors with 10000k hids and maybe find an s5 front bumper and get some fogs with it

 

I've also used Cibie housings with hidextra 6000k H4 bixenon kit. It works a -lot- better than stock for light output. I'd rather go the projector route. The headlamps on my 2011 Toyota make the reflector housing HID setup look horrible.

I'd stick with something like Cibie or Hella housings with high power halogen lamps if you need good lighting and reasonable prices. You could get housings and lights for less than $130.

 

this seems to be the source of the magic behind the $900 kits

yeah the ones im lookin at on ebay are hids and housings 110 bucks out the door with shipping

nothing compared to the other kits, the cut off will suck and you will be blinding people, it will look cooler but perform marginally better

 

do wha?

 

im thinking something like this: http://www.theretrofitsource.com/pro...roducts_id=237

this is basically what is in the kit people paid $900 for

 

Anyone who charges that much is high as ****.

I did a hid/projector conversion on my ninja. It didn't cost 800$!





My Setup on my zx6r:
Bi-xenon Morimoto Mini H4
Morimoto H4 Bulbs
DDM Tuning slim motorcycle ballasts (set on top of air-ram intake, so it had to be small)
Harness rewired into new loom so it's ninja approved with the relay in the trunk and grounded to the battery (all aluminum bike = no ground spots).

Ideal Setup for FC:
Bi-xenon Morimoto HID Kit from the retrofitsource $295
Pair of generic H4 sealed-beam housings $20

Thats just $315 for a nice setup. The sealed housings can be opened, tiny reflector in the center removed, and these quality projectors installed. It will allow factory high/low and adjustment (adjust the headlight like factory), all with a nice cut off and light output.

Crazy mother ******* charging $800. lolol

PS do not install "projector rings". They attach by cheezy plastic clips. One hard landed wheelie and they fell off and were stuck inside the headlight. Removing them completely does not affect light output and it doesn't bleed. I can picture it happening on an FC when you hit a pothole.

 

hey people got to eat, I am just learning about this **** now thanks to hypertek and now you, I went to the retrofit website and its pretty helpful and they even have group buy pricing

 

Cool. Glad I could help. Took a long time to write all that. Need any help, shoot me a pm.

 

**** the mini kits are drop in, dont even have to drill out the housings

I have DOT housings, hopefully if a cop breaks my ***** he will see DOT on the housings and leave me alone, not like he wont have much more **** to bust me for, lol

 

im new to this whole retro fit game...how hard would it be do retrofit the projectors into the stock housings?

 

you cant into stock housings, you need h4 housings

 

The minis don't fit so a "drop in" is not possible.

 

well lets be real here, I dont consider anything to truly drop in, but a little trimming or sanding grinding is pretty much drop in

it says for h4 housings, so what am I missing?
