4 lanes? I can see my cutoff on the side of the wall on a 5 lane road (5 lane in each direction).

Thanks guys, I appreciate it.

Here are some daytime pictures from my cell phone.





The entire project (projectors+bulbs+ballasts) cost me about $350. I got the LS430 projectors for really cheap on ebay. They usually go for ~$400 projectors alone. I finished them throughout a long 3 day weekend. They are LS430 shrouds too btw. I'll try to get better pictures soon.

I wish I would have gone with LS430 projectors for my retrofit but I wanted bi-xenon.

Yep, same here...but the TL I'm using right now is the best of both worlds! You need to drop the extra set of TL's in your car, trust me it's a lot better than the German projectors

The install looks nice. I am not a fan of the colors of the lights though.
