Retrofit Gen 6 Camry XLE

Hello guys,

I am thinking of retrofitting my OEM lights to HID Xenon. Do any of you know where I can get a pair of Camry Gen 6 Light housing and projectors designed for HID? Thanks in advance

Thanks guys. Yeah, I did search and I have to admit I am not that technical when working with cars. I was hoping that there's already one made for purchase. I checked ebay because sometimes they do have things like that, but no luck. They only have projectors with halo rings. I don't think their projectors are designed for HID Xenon. Anyway, thanks guys and thanks njerald for the link, let me check it out.

The link that njerald posted is all you need if you want to do your retrofit. You pay $600 to him to modify the headlights. Once he's done, he'll send you the retrofitted lights back to you. You take your headlights and ship it to him. Once he receive those, he'll refund you $150.

So while he's modifying a spare set, you can drive your until he's done.

I got mine done by JSM and can vouch for the work. i actually bought an extra set of OEM headlights on eBay. Sent those to him to modify and I was still driving my car around. Once he was done, he sent back my headlights, installed those and took off my originals. Now, I have my TSX retrofit and my spare SE headlights in the garage.
