Retrofit Questions

Hello, I plan on doing my first retrofit. I was unable to find some decent RX330 non-afs projectors, does anyone know of any sources that I can purchase them from? Also I found a few topics about retrofit yet I haven't found one that has like a step by step or a close to step by step instruction to retrofit. Is there one out there for our Gen 6 camry?

Thanks

I looked through those and couldn't find a close step by step walk through, that is what I was looking for. Also if anyone knows any sources where I can get some rx330 non-afs projectors

don't get non afs rx. but the newer acura mdx projectors like glenn did recently. the bracket mounts up perfectly. all you need to do is dremel or cut a bit at bottom for the little piece that sticks out on reflector. plus these projectors are identical to the non afs rx just different shield/bracket.

there really is no step by step. put headlights in oven and bake at 220 for 10 mins, take headlights apart, put in the desired projectors, paint shroud if needed, test the setup on the car to make sure the rotation is on target, clean inside of dust and fingerprints, put both halves together and reheat headlight, seal it up again, mount on car, adjust up and down level via the back 8mm screw, and then enjoy.

Thanks, I was actually going to go off of yours with the rx330 projectors, do you have a link to glenn's project? I dont think My 2009 Camry SE TSX Retrofit in progress.. is it and the pictures dont work.

Edit: do you know what years of the acura mdx projectors I should get?
