Hmmmmmmmmm.
I like how the J30 fills up the high beam though. I don't really care for the chrome though. I think if you put the blazers in the high beam, it'll look too small. But I can't speak for it, since I've only seen the blazers on pictures on web.
I would continue on! Especially since the only thing left is labor lol. If it doesn't work out, I'll send you another set of high beams to you

welp the first half of the battle is done. now i need to go to hidplanet or whatever and learn to aim projectors before i set them in their permanent positions. so these hids warm up green. then go from normal green to throw up yellow. im satisfied with the product but man... it sucks
anyways heres more pics. dont judge guys as mentioned before ill aim projector beams this weekend maybe.... im in no rush to install these now. i can still use some time to buff and finish the housings. as of current pics. fog lights arent mounted in solid position, projectors arent in solid positions. etc etc etc
projector no housing
another warming up shot lol
and a glare free shot of projector in housing

Are you using the xentec slim ballasts? I have the same "green" problem as you as I'm using an HID capsule condom over my hid bulbs. People have same the xentec slim ballast cause the bulbs to be a different color. I'm going to switch over to the old school fat ballast to see if this corrects the green-ness.

daytime shots, aiming projectors one bulb is 8000k (figured id try it...but the yellow + blue is like..... teal??? id expect green. oh wells
now i kinda wish i woudlve stayed oem. this looks too excited to me.. good thing i didnt splice and can go back as soon as i get a driver side fog lol.
fitment s hould be even better when theyre mounted, not sure if im gonna ziptie or doubleside 3m tape.... anyways now i have to clean the housing and polish. then they go in ( TONIGHT!)

and the moment youve been waiting for. the sloppy back shots and the seal.
ive sealed with silicone to ensure theres no condensation around the h3 hid bulbs.
ive also used screws drilled in at like a 45 degree angle to allow original fog light housing caps to be lifted over /off to seal tightly and remove normally.
its extremely ugly overall but entirely functional. i can remove and change bulbs with ease, i can use screw up/down to adjust projector from outside, and it doenst leak. now what ive been waiting for is the install in about an hour after gym.. still debating zipties or double sided tape. no screw mounting because im keeping this uncommitted.
