I was able to find a pair of Integra Type-R projectors...FINALLY. There were 4 guys in the line-up, but I emailed them 2 days ago and no reply.

Anyway, who's up for the projector conversion? For those who don't know the details, check my homepage:
http://www.geocities.com/leunghomepage/CustomWork.html

So far, Ratko, Wraith and myself have these projectors. I can do them for '92-'94 Cams and also the '95-'96.

My email: HTRacing@hotmail.com

I am also talking to a guy who works as a BMW parts man dealing with warranties and repairs. He will be able to supply me with projector cores from BMW's (wrecked headlights but with good projectors), so I will get into details on that later :grin:

They look very nice, but the frosted lenses sorta defeat the purpose, don't you think? Can they be made with clear lenses? Why not just put Lexus ES300 lenses on them from the same model year?

Are you willing to send them down south. What all would I need to provide you? I am down for the deal that Camry300RR said. I could purchase the lenses have them, sent youtr way, and you send them down to me. Would this work, I'm not sure what is all involved. Email me @ heyyo@insightBB.com

The price I got from conversion is about 325 USD. Let me know any other details, thanks.

Hey CamryRR, right now, I have a limited number of projectors, so I don't know about selling the projector cores alone.

Anyway, the chance is very slim to fit 4 projectors in the Camry housing...I took a look and the Camry's highbeam reflectors just lacks the depth to fit in a projector :sad: Perhaps you can find a projector that has a very thin profile.

Hey s2tigger, the frosted lens does take away a lot of its beauty, but some of us are dying to have a nice beam pattern for our HID's. These projectors will let our HID's look like BMW's and also light the road up close to BMW HID's. Good thing though is that the headlights look like projector headlights because we are luck that the stock Camry headlights aren't "too blurred out". The HID light still comes out very sharp, and there are no sign of blurred light. If you check on the BMW's projectors, their projector lens is actually blurred also.

Tony The Tiger,
I'm up for the projector conversion. Can I buy the whole thing from you? What projectors would you use for them?
