Are you asking how to retrofit projectors into the lights or how to make your non-adjusting headlight GS into an adjusting one?
For the projector retro I'm currently doing, I'm in just $210 dollars not including bulbs. And it'll be able autolevel capable. . I'm doing everything myself though.

OT0814, since your headlight is not HID, you need to buy :
- LS430 projector = $250 on ebay
- Ballast + bulb = around $100-150
- Bracket from LuxuryMods : $50
since your lens is pretty whack condition, you might want to replace it as well, check out the 2GS classified section, sometimes someone selling the lens cover only or go to ebay / craigslist buy a good quality headlight
- DIY cost would be 14 hrs ( at least for me & my buddy that helped me out )
I think LuxuryMods labor would be $250 - $300 ? not sure about this one either.

As for the auto adjust, it's just a big pain to get them working, especially when they don't really make much of a difference.

Thanks for the comments guys!
Easiest lights to work on are halogen headlights. For halogen headlights, most projectors should end up looking like this. Perfect seal & all. The projector used below is the M45.
Anyone attempting to try any retrofit on their own, we offer the same brackets we use to get the perfect install. Horizontal alignment, one of the time consuming tasks will be eliminated with the use of our bracket. You won't have to worry about messing with silicon/glue/JB weld to secure anything. Once done, everything functions as it should from the factory, all adjustment screws work!
Happy Modding!
