First thing i want to say is...damnit
the new FX-R 2.0 is now offered on the TRS website...i didnt know they were gonna make a better verison of the FX-R
here is what i have done
i bought 4 fx-r projectors , gattling gun shrouds, morimoto 5five bulbs and ballasts 4300k m with the harness.
the stuff has been sitting untill i finishd me collage exams i open the box 3 times a week to check the stuff lol
sorry for the low quality pic's all i had was my 3.2MP blackberry
i started with the marking the hallogen cutoff so i sawped back from my PNP to the hallogen's
my workin area
removed the harness for the heating process
it toke me 1 hore just to peal the lens from the housing because this is my first retro and because i ussed a heat gun, i strongly recomend not to wast time with a heat gun...go to the oven and bake the hole thing
imperfictions of the OEM reflector
use a powl or any thing to keep all your bolts and littel things in it so you wont lose any
ruber removed
i looked every where for the screws that held the reflector to the housing and didnt find any after drilling two holes in the back...no probs the silicone will close them up just right.
the reflector is acctually two parts the reflectors for the hige and low beams and the signal and liner reflector
the signal reflector was held on the housing with the sealent and somthing i dont know what you call it but ill say clips
first pice out
this is the actual reflector
its mounted uisng 2 10 mm plastic bolts that are attached to a flexable plastic adabter( the white piece)
the second bolt was in the inner side and it was so tight i couldent use my 10mm wrench so i used this 5/16
WAAAAAAAAA!!
didnt work
so i cuted my wrench
this is the inner side bolt
its out....damn hard
befor you hurry up and pull it...there is a holding point at the adjusting screw..
you dont need a wrench on that one just pop it firmly and slowly
the plastic bolt at the back of the reflector
this projector is the mokeup projector
the projector is alot taller than the reflector
the shroud
so i cuted the mokeup projector and i fucked it up ... i orderd another one i still have 3 good ones so ill complete this unit and wait untill the replacement projector arrives and do the driver's side
this is my goal... i wont be using the oem reflectors and wont use the acrilc eather
it looks so good that way and looks tough too i want to show some details like bolts and stuff to make it look like a heavey duty setup
