Default Eagle Eyes headlight retro complete

After months of research/gathering parts and having the headlights for about a year or so, I finally found someone local who was willing to give this retrofit project a shot. Projectors are AFS RX330 with clear BMW E30 lens and custom shield. Shrouds are BMW E36 replicas. The retro came out very clean, as you can see in the pics. If anyone wants the retrofitter's contact info, just shoot me a PM. He's usually around the 626/310 areas in case anyone was wondering.

Get in line. Fitment isn't as good as OEM, but that's to be expected. It's good enough though.

Really horrible at taking night shots, but here's what I was able to get.

About 15 feet away.

On an incline.

Mine's a '91. Shouldn't be too hard to convert to H4/9003...think there might even be a thread on it somewhere in the LS forum.

Thumbs up Great!

Yeah that looks great, from the install execution to the performance. Are these lights bi-xenon or if not what are you doing for hi beams?

LOL @ idol comment. Don't worry Brandon, yours will come out looking better once completed. LS460 > RX330

They're low beams only. I've been fine without high beams for the past 8 years, so I opted not to go with bi-xenons.
