Default Parts list for a TL retro??

first off, i have searched for this without much luck. with that said, Im wondering exactly what parts i need, preferably with part numbers. Here's what i have, let me know if im missing something:

-TL projectors (part #?)
-TL bulbs (part #?)
-TL ballasts (part #?)
-set of srt headlights to hackup
-something to surround the projector for a clean look (plastic plant pot or something)
-some wiring skills and tools, soldering iron, solder, etc.
-wiring diagram (do i need one? if so, where can i find one)

i think thats everything from what i have read. thanks in advance.

-TL projectors (part #?) Acura 2004 (and up, although 2006 seems to be a little different) TL, projectors from their headlight assembly. Projectors inlcude the projector bowl as well as the lense.
-TL bulbs (part #?) Burners you can find any D2S burner www.hidplanet.com/forums
-TL ballasts (part #?) Similarly hidplanet.com/forums
-set of srt headlights to hackup - Depot Headlights for the 03 neon and up (available @ modernperformace)
-something to surround the projector for a clean look (plastic plant pot or something) bezels can come in many forms. Cheapest would be to use the plastic pot mod. I beleive available @ walmart. Pics can be seen in this forum.
-some wiring skills and tools, soldering iron, solder, etc.
-wiring diagram (do i need one? if so, where can i find one) wiring can be found here Questions about Performing my own HID Retro...

i think thats everything from what i have read. thanks in advance

I'd like to hear or see how people are mounting them. To be more specific, how the projector is being secured in place? JB Weld, L brackets, plummers tape, hot glue, something custom....Magic?

So people arent using the Acura TL bulbs and ballasts? do you have a direct link to the bulb and ballast you are talking about?

If i can go with an oem ballast and bulbs, do you have the part numbers? my buddy works at the honda parts department, so a very large discount will be had for me if i can stick with honda/acura parts! Thanks a bunch!

You do not have to use "TL specific" bulbs and ballast. Any OEM ballast will work. Any OEM D2S bulb will work.

For OEM ballasts and bulbs, go here www.hidplanet.com

I recommend buying new electrical components (ballasts and bulbs) over used. You do not know the condition or lifespan of used.
