Default Q45 HID assembly into a 01 GS430 DIY?

i've searched the boards looking for a write up or DIY for this swap after i saw it on soaristo's car. Beautiful project, but i have no clue how to do it. Money isn't really a problem, just instructions! if anyone has completed this project, please let me know! Maybe i can outsource this hid and blacked out headlights project to another member who wants to make some cash on the side!

I've only seen it on 2 cars on CL: GammaLex and 2001HiTechGS. You can try PMing them for info since they both did it themselves, although I have not seen 2001HiTechGS on here for a little while.

There is a site on Soaristo's page.
I even think he posted about it here.
Maybe a search on that members name will turn up some info.

Does any one have idea if this project works for ES300?

In Soaristo's page he mentioned that the Q45 multi-lens projector is approximately 14cm in width and 15cm in depth. Any one has idea if it will fit in ES300 '01.
