it's the kit str8 from superhids.com. . everything is already installed. unless u jus want pix of the installed kit, bulb and everything else. . . i defnitely notice a whole lotta light, but none of it is concentrated as it scatters in every f**king direction. it's really disappointing to spend $410 on something when you don't get your money's worth. . so PLEASE, help

Wow you spent $410.00 on a kit, that's too much.

yeah i thought getting a conversion kit would be "safe." anyways, my main problem is i have a hid kit on non-hid housing (stock). . i know it's better than projectors, but is there anything i can do to at least minimize and concentrate more of the light and have it aimed more to the middle? i don't think u need pix for this question of principle

* MINIMIZE SCATTER. . . light shoots eveywhere

Well with out a PICTURE i can not help you. Picture is more than thousand words.

I might have solution shield or make one. AIM it lower if you can. AIM your headlight, not that hard. If not man i wouldn't have bought that kit. you could of done this.

Retro:
Stock IS300 or G35 reflectors, G35's i have them in stock and i sell it for $50 a pair. HID Kit with D2R bulbs $230.00

$280.00 + $100 labor = $380.00 and u pay shipping, i can get it cheap cuz i have fedex account. prob like $10bucks.

Anywho try to aim it lower if you can get me a picture of teh bulb the better...ur saying it scatters but w/o pictures i do not know how it is scattering and where and why...

 

[onenighter712]

EK9, is it possible for you to send me some pictures of your work? I am very interested, but I don't wanna f**k up my headlights and rather have someone with the idea and experience behind what they are doing. Could you email some pics to elmartinez85@bellsouth.net

 

[Jezek]

So are these $300ish priced hits worth it in oem headlights?

Yea check page two of this thread, but if you want more pix i got some .. i'll attach on next thread

Yea only if you get bulbs like this

http://www.superhids.com/h4single.jpg

if you can find H4 HID kits with that type of reflectors, you'll get cut off like IS300 / G35, if not which is about 90% of aftermarket kits, which has one metal shield- well than it's not worht it

so you say if i send you a pair of headlight buckets its only gonna cost me 380 to get it done w/ projectors??

$280 - HID Kit
$100 - Labor *for reflectors only* $200 for Projectors

And you'll need to send the whole headlights, so the shourd/beezel *covers* will fit right and not hit the plastic covers.

Projectors wise i have few in my garage, BMW M3, 330Ci, Benz E55, TSX, and few others.

Here are few pictures i added

Accord with E55 Bi-Xenon:




Sorry for large pix, but last pix shown is only one projector on. shows you how much light it outputs even thought it's one projector


Del Sol with Audi A6 Single Xenon/ Custom Plexi headlights:



A6 is known for their weird slop cut off, but it does its job..


Both of the projectors was used with Osram Xenarc 66040 D2S

Like what i told Jezek, check this link http://www.superhids.com/h4single.jpg

if you get that type of bulb NO you will not get a lot of glare, if not yes you will and minimal light to ground..

Any H4/9003 applications produce glares, but if you get that type of shield; you will not get that much glare

Damn, I wish I had those shrouds. I'd put the HID's back in my car if it worked as well as you say.

So Ek9, if someone sends you housings, you'll do all the labor with the kit included? As you are in Texas you can't physically install it so is the electrical part ez for anyone?
