at first i was gonna go with the TSX but im pretty sure if i did i would probably open up the headlights and put in a better set of projectors in a few months

someone over at HIDplanet just retrofitted some sc430 projectors into a gen6 camry so im pretty sure s2k's will fit because they are very similar in size

got most of my parts in on wednesday except for the aftermarket to d2s ballast adapter... im still waiting on those

some pics... ill try to take pics of everything i do

bought one side to practice on

bulb im gonna use

got a sheet of aluminum today and traced the stock bracket+s2k bowl

So far so good,good luck with your project.

Oh man, that's exactly how I retrofitted mine, traced the stock halogen projector from the Gen6 and the TSX bowl for one big massive bracket, lol.

Looking great though.

oh man, congrats on the S2K projectors! haha

wish i had the money for them, or even the LS430s but good luck and happy retrofitting!

I found the Retro of the FX low beam, and S2K high beam:

Tobeit · 10-31-2008, 03:55 PM

That looks great (not sure of the angle of the S2K though) - and somebody just mentioned in another thread dual projectors would be ugly. Not so.

what do u use to reseal the lights JSM?

havent done anything yet, my friends been busy and hes the one with all the tools

JSM1284 · 10-31-2008, 07:55 PM

After i put them back together with the stock sealant, I go around and squeeze clear silicone caulk between the lens and housing to make sure its sealed good.

you can also just use 3m window weld. Its the same thing as the orgional sealant and makes life easier if you need to open it up again in the future.

It should be near the windshield/window related stuff like tints or windshield repair kits.
