Matt's '07 Retrofit Build Thread

[Carolinaboy]

I one day will do this. I have one spare headlight right now. All I need is the kit and another headlight

I agree that this is a much better alternative, but I still think the HID's are incredibly blinding to oncoming drivers. I know...........

I'll agree with that. It's not only the glare, but the fact that most of the bulbs are white. I used to run HIDs in stock housings, but after realizing how nuts they were I promised myself not to run them again until I do a proper retrofit. While it's still not legal, it's a much better way to run them. No worse than cars that come stock with HIDs.

Looking forward to the progression. The exact style I want to do/have done myself. Chrome bowl housings but black shell. I like NCSU's lights but the black bowls is what made me think leery of the initial appearance of the Retro-Fits. I do like the chrome bowl and retrofit with black shell look. If I scrape some side cash up I may try it to my original OEM headlamps in the garage or ship them out to be done.

Do it yourself! The satisfaction will be awesome.





Update: All Ready!

Think I'm going to split and paint the headlights tomorrow. Too lazy to start tonight. So ready to get it done, though.
