took almost 15 hours of non stop workin.
im happy how it looks with the projector.

 

Pictures! This thread is pointless without em.

Also, what brand did you go with?

 

ill take pic tonight. i used Valeo H7 projector.
how high should the cut off line should be from the ground?

 

 

It took me about that long to do the retrofit on my wife's 98 ES. It's alot of work, but it feels good when you get it done. BTW looks like you need to rotate the projectors. Your cutoff lines are sideways, they both need to be straight across.

 

yea. i noticed after i sealed it back on.
too late now.

 

have to live with what i have

 

I would re bake it asap but then again i'm obsessive compulsive. Other than that since you just had your headlight open do you think there might be a place for like 1-4 silica pads to stop condensation. I'm planning on doing mine and would like to try to put some pads in where no one can see them.

 

Good job dood! Take some daytime pics too!

But yeah you should definitely bake them again and fix the cutoff line. I mean you did all this work and i'm sure you want a light spread that represents your efforts.

 

LOL my cutoffs looked like that when I first did my retrofit. People who retro the 97-01 ES300, make sure you aim them on your car. The ES headlights are NOT level when you set them on the table. You should open them up and redo it. I've opened up my headlights so many times already.

 

i would open it up n redo do it and paint the whole thing black. but sadly screwed the projector and put glues n sealer so i cant move the projector at all

 

I'd hate for you to blind an on-coming driver with 3 kids in the (on-coming) car and have them run off a cliff...

A bit dramatic, but its rediculous when people do not take on-coming traffic's safety into consideration when modifying their own headlights...

I use to have a Titan, and the Titan guys were putting HID's in the trucks, I just couldnt do it. Sitting in my Civic my eye's were just about level with my Titan, I couldnt imagine an HID bulb blasting into my eyes...

I vote for a re-bake and re-level...

 

Re-Level please. You will be blinding oncoming traffic. Not to be rude, but if I passed you, id turn around, follow you home and smash the headlights. That is dramatic I know, But having un-level projectors is about as bad as putting HID kits in reflector housings.
