HID retro?

[ClaraBalara]

What kind of parts would I need besides the headlight assembly, the HIDkit, and the projectors. Are there any parts im missing? Also how would the highbeam work?

[ClaraBalara]

is there like a how to some where out there?? i tried looking for one but no luck....

You need bi-xenon projectors to have high beams worth a shit. Those hi/lo "kits" with the dinky halogen bulb for a high beam are worthless.

You'll need:
Heat gun or oven
Screwdrivers and basic tools
HID OEM projectors
OEM ballasts
OEM capsules (bulbs)
DEPO or Eagle Eye replacement headlights
Upgraded wiring harness with relay
Bandaids and hydrogen peroxide
Dremel
Cutting discs
Bolts, nuts and washers
Sealant of some kind
ABS or some form of material to make a enclosure or shroud
And alot of patience

I never really got my break but yes I'm about to open the doors up again. I'm probably not going to advertise on this site though so you will have to reach me thru emails or from other forums I frequent. I just can't afford or jusify paying the amount I'll have to pay since they don't allow the cheaper Bronze level vendorship here anymore, thus forcing you to have to pay the premium Gold level vendorship. Either that or a existing vendor here will have to carry my headlights if I go that route. But being burned on that method before with kustomatix, i'm a little weary in trusting vendors .

Prices back then ranged anywhere from $400-1200+ depending on the quality of the projectors chosen, if they were halogen or HID and if they came complete (with bulbs and ballsts).
