Canadian. Would be approx 350 usd if we took what percentage 550 of the total cost was, and then use a percentage to find out the percentage it would be of it in USD.

Mini H1 V7.0 Bi-Xenon
Mini H1 bulbs
35w ballast
Wiring Harness
Adapters
Rear caps (which trs doesn't include)

So that 350 number I just guessed, went to their site and:


Plus tax.

Lights look very well . I don't think that given used colors for lights sources they are street legal for non-showroom car though.

I mean, I'm pretty sure we're all aware that demon eyes are only for shows. Otherwise the white LED bar and bi-Xenon projectors are perfectly fine.

Hyperion these are awesome. Beautiful job. Where are you/your business located? I'd love to do a Bi-xenon lows/matchbox highs one day but probably won't have the time.

Is the MH7 a direct replacement for the oem projector? Or did you have to make custom brackets?

That set looks killer! Great job.

Located in Toronto.
Half my business is local, half is shipped to the States lol. Americans love our low dollar, $1000 builds become 750.

Unfortunately it's not a direct replacement, brackets have to be used.

The mini h1 itself needs playing with too. If you just slap it in, sometimes your output looks like this:

You can see the Hotspot is actually about a foot too low and off to the side. Looks bad here, looks terrible at 100 ft where it's 4 feet off.
So I spent about 30 minutes and 10 different tries shimming the bulb, rotating it, playing with clip placement and a bunch of stuff to get it perfect.

Thumbs up puts my retro'ed Winjets to shame!

VERY NICE!

Does this setup retain the reflector high beam functionality (for bi-xenon + reflector quad high beams ?)
