Default Thinking of going with projectors from Theretrofitsource.com

Anyone know anything about these Morimoto Mini's? The reviews are good, especially in the application for my truck. I am also curious how difficult this projector retrofit will be? They are asking $295 for the Projectors, HID Ballasts, Bulbs and the Angel Eye kit.

Ive dealt with Matt and have had nothing but great service from him. The Morimotos are a great little projector.
The Mori's are very easy to fit, if your reflector bowl is big enough. They come with a threaded spline that should just fit into your existing entry hole in the reflector bowl, then a thin nut from behind will secure it squarely in place.

Good to know! They are definately on my list. So the projector just sits in front of the bulb like the tab that sits in front of it now? Awesome! That means I dont HAVE to buy new headlights.

The morimotos are great bi-xenon projectors. Their small size and design makes them much easier to retrofit into headlights, especially small headlights, than other projectors. It'd be a good projector choice. Matt@TRS was a huge pleasure doing business with. Very helpful and guided me in pick out all the parts I needed for my retrofit.

morimoto minis are a literal bolt-on retro as they can come with a threaded rod, they will work on H4/9003 and 9005/6 headlights. check hidplanet.
