Have you taken the winjet headlights apart?

I haven't seen any Hot Lava lights in here yet, so here you go:
(Satin black housings with RX330 projectors modified with new lenses, bi-xenon solenoid and a custom shield-- HIRs in the high beam)

Have you retro'd the fogs too, or is that just the way they look USDM?

speedrye · 03-26-2014, 06:46 AM

Yeah, I'm running HID projectors for the fogs too. I found some generic sealed H9 projectors from The Retrofit Source's bargain basement a year or two ago and they've sat in the garage until recently. Installed some 4300k Morimoto ballasts and bulbs, created a custom cutoff shield and an aggressive foreground limiter as well. They're all wired and relayed up, but I haven't run the trigger wire to the foglight switch yet.

Yeah, yeah, I know, output shots... I'm getting there and am still adjusting my height to be perfect, but I can tell you they're awesome from the two times I've driven the car in the past few weeks. Weather has sucked.

I just PM'd you. You have to take apart the entire headlight, that means the projector, housings, everything. Very important that you do it with PATIENCE, don't force anything.
