wiggyx A4 retro fit build - SRT Forums

wiggyx · 07-20-2008, 01:26 PM

I started my A4 retro fit today. Here's where I'm at so far...

The lamp is mounted to the OEM reflector and will be adjustable with the factory adjustment screw. The A4 projector surround fits almost perfectly within the Neon lamp as you can see. I'll post more pics as the project goes on.

bi-xenon or single beam?

Unfortunately, single beam. The A4 lamps were free from a friend, so I can't complain really. Next time I'll do a bi-xenon kit.

You got it. The one in the picture is gonna be my test mule. I'm prolly gonna end up f-in' up here and there, so I'll just keep this as my template after I do the final revision so as to help myself and others make more kits later on.

looks almost factory, real nice! how did you get the lens off so cleanly?

wiggyx · 07-20-2008, 10:34 PM

^^^ a LOT of patience. It took many trips to and from the oven to get it off that cleanly. In the end, a good 25 minute heat soak at about 225°F and a good deal of firm prying got it off.
