I think you need to read up some more on HID's. I would not want to use those headlights to retrofit. Try looking for a cheap used set. You will not be able to reuse you pnp ballasts unless you get a different connector that will allow you to use a D2S base bulb (or whatever base the projector has) instead of a 9006 base bulb. TSX projectors are small and would not work as well with the GS. GSteg used TSX before and decided to go with LS430's.
