Here are a couple of pics, will get some better ones later. Sorry Whocares for taking so long, but do remember that this is custom work, you are not going to get it right the first time. I have to seal up the back and make sure projectors are mounted identical then i will send them out to you. Third successful retro done by me. I'll be doing a fourth using some tsx projectors and some pipe fittings i saw at Lowes. Enjoy these garbage pics for now, i get some asap. lata.

nice!!!! THANK YOU!!!.....now give 'em back...

I would recommend ppl to u for retros in the future (if i have anyone)

not a problem on it taking long...as i'm sure with everyone, better to take longer and have it done right then do it quickly and have to fix it later.

Kinda ironic your the first reply. The painting process held me back a while, because i forgot to spray primer on the metal surface. So i had to grind everything off then redo it...

well, there just shows your quality right there and not just leaving it all crappy. so when u sending 'em out?

i'll also be taking pics...

sorry to be a thread jacker but how much for a retro if i get the brand new housings for my gen 3.5 and buy all the projectors for you i wanna do both low and high projectors

nice

I never did a dual setup, It will be a first why not just go with a bi-xenon that has low and high functions, but the camry already has a high beam, which you don't need with hid projectors. Trust me, they are bright enough
