Thumbs up Just Another LS430 retrofit into 2GS
Hey guys, just showing some pictures of our current retro that we're finishing up for a customer. Simple LS430 retrofit, cleared signals, etc.

Comments & feedback appreciated!

1) Lenses separated


2. Before --> Reflector


3. Outer bezel removed


4. Bezel before modification


5. LS430 test fit, looks like a perfect match...should have come from the factory this way


6. Mounting the LS430, all factory adjustments kept intact...HID leveling motors as well...


7. Clearing the turn signals


8. After modification of the bezel, nice and clean cuts...


9. Re-assembled...


10. The pair head-on...beam shots to come later...


Thanks for looking!

Yes, custom metal brackets were used. No mickey mouse brackets out of plexiglass here...
