Default Need Data on LS 460 Retrofit..

Hello everyone,
Hope everone is doing well..

I'll get right to the point, does anyone have any idea on where I find information on how to do an LS460 retrofit onto a GS??? My searches haven't yielded anything really useful aside from beam comparison with the LS430's. (JnC, your the man!) perhaps I am looking in the wrong place. I will appreciate any and all positive input.

Thanks!

I got a 460 retro! The 430 has a slighted wider width then the 460 but the 460 looks cooler . As far as install go it's like anyother retro. Cut the reflector accordingly and trim the projector to make it fit and then use industrial epoxy to bond the reflector and projector once you got the beam correct. And you are going to have to trim the inside trimming of the headlight a little bit to have full left to right adjustment.

Ask jefftsai for more info

Can someone point me to "industrial epoxy" ... I need it super strong because my ride is stiff. Don't want my hard work go to waste when it hits a bump.

My project is gonna be ugly since I don't know what I'm doing, but, gonna do it anyway

so far, replaced the lense: TSX-R lense (took less than a minute each)



Thanks handoverfi for confirming my suspicion!
Next, cutting and glueing.

My DIY site is down right now. I but I had a full guide on how to do a retrofit. Search here under my name on the forum and I think it will show up. It will either be here or in the lighting section. If you don't find it, I'll post up the link here later when I have time to look for it.
