hey guys, i finished the projector retrofit a while ago, and it was my first time doing it. they are e46 bixenon with 5000k philips bulbs. i've gotten a new car since then, a 1998 diamond pearl white GS400. my sister drives the ES300 now so she's looking pretty cool in high school.

Looks nice.
Since the 97-01 headlights are longer..theres kinda of an imbalance with only one projector...howabout dual projectors

Very creative with the beer can shrouds. Looks like they do not cover the openings in the projectors though. I see alot of refraction in the pics.

I like it though. Wish more guys in the ES forum would make this jump to HID. Truly a superior lighting compared to reflectors

I thought about going this route. I could not fit the projectors inside the housing on the high beam side. I have a set of audi a4 projectors (very small) that I was going to use, but they were hitting on the plastic lens and would not let me seal them up properly. It is a ***** to align dual projectors.

yeah, i was thinking of putting another pair of projectors in but had a lot of trouble aligning these projectors. i can't imagine trying to align two sets! the shrouds were hard to make because the bixenon shroud had to clear. i covered what i could with aluminum tape, especially the top of the projector so there shouldn't be glare. the e46 were really big and hard to fit into the ES housing. the e46 bixenon is even harder! but i got a good deal on them. they touch the headlight trim so it's hard to aim. :/

You are right about the projector touching the headlight trim. Mine just barely clear em.
