The new 6.0 is so much sharper than the original morimotos I used last summer, very nice.

5K... All I'll run with.. Anything more and I start to lose my depth.. I have never tried 4300 but was thinking of picking up a set of XB35 H1 bulbs in 4300 and 5K to see which I like better

I want to try 4300k but I don't want to lose the colorful cutoff. Any updates on those 6.0 adapters btw?

don't know about the projectors itself, but I can tell you TRS has exceptional customer service. I had a bad relay that was sent to me with the harness and they replaced it no questions asked. They even help troubleshoot and isolate a problem if you do have one, and will correct it as well. I've bought from them many times and will continue to do so.

@Gixxersixxerman

Do our stock type low beam bulbs fit, or would I have to get new bulbs? These are the projectors by themselves. They come with "optional" shrouds. Will the stock shroud not work?

You want these: http://www.theretrofitsource.com/com...l#.UwgvdouYaUk


They come with application specific mounting brackets that make the kit bolt in. Stock bulbs will not fit.

Thanks @Poodles

I'm currently running an HID kit from HID Powerhouse. Anything wrong with reusing the Platinum R ballast? I would get the XB35 bulbs.

If your ballast has standard AMP connectors, I'd go ahead and give them a shot.

Question for those who did the retrofit with the 6.0 does the bi-xenon setup affect the DRL? Pics of how it was wired?
