It just because I'm searching for good qualitie and I'm not familiar with EBAY :S Do you know aproximitely how much can cost the instalation of this type of projectors ?

**J-Ro** · 04-14-2008, 04:24 PM

If you install them yourself, parts will cost around $350-400 (bulbs, ballasts, projectors).

If you have someone else do it, like Customlightz, it'll be closer to $1000-1100, depending on what you want. But they do a fantastic job every time.

Thanks !

But they sell all the parts or I have to buy them and contact them for the installation ?

djdisturbed · 04-14-2008, 04:46 PM

Customlightz will do everything (but the more THEY have to supply the more the cost will be) the only thing you will need to send them in your stock headlights.

EDIT.... they will do everything BUT take out and reinstall your headlights and the HID stuff in your car for you, unless you take it to there shop yourself.

Because that's just the bezel, not the projector itself. Nice and misleading

asa · 04-19-2008, 11:39 AM

TSX clear lens low beam projectors
RS gen 3 replica HID ballasts
Philips 85122+ D2S bulbs
E46 replica shrouds
Plug n play low beam harness

normal pricing for these parts is $435+shipping. I will do it all for $400 shipped if your willing to buy direct.

This is good ?

**J-Ro** · 04-19-2008, 05:34 PM

Sounds good except for the ballasts... since it says "replica", they're likely not OEM. They'll still work, but there's a chance they may fail prematurely.

asa · 04-20-2008, 03:35 PM

and the price ...

asa · 04-21-2008, 08:01 PM

He say to me that there is no difference between replica or OEM...

**J-Ro** · 04-21-2008, 08:16 PM

As long as they're both functional, yes. But "functional" is the key word.

studying for a bio test. This poor child has retinoblastoma, but all i can think of is that he has an HID. I need to get off of 8th civic...

IVtecDou · 06-01-2008, 12:33 PM

nice headlights

JohnnySak69 · 07-07-2008, 01:20 AM

how hard is it to mess up while doing this? haha

i'm definitely looking into doing a retrofit but im afraid im gonna drill a hole too big for the projectors and basically mess everything up.

Basically im asking...am i gonna be able to do this without messing anything up?

**J-Ro** · 07-09-2008, 08:48 PM

^ Only you can answer that question.... sorry, I know that wasn't the answer you were looking for. :)

Just go slow and take your time. It helps to buy a second set of headlights. That's what I did and I've been working on mine for over a month now.... granted I don't work on them every day. But they're going to be sexy bitches when I'm done :)
