Wicked dude, your retrofits are unrivaled. I can't wait till after christmas (bonus!) so I can send you the lamps in my GC8 for this.

very cool. someone else had done this but i don't think he was as concerned about where exactly the projector sat, and it was noticable that it was a little bit deeper in the headlight than the H1 projectors were. it's pretty apparent that you're making that bracket not just to work, but to position the projector closer to the front.

looking forward to the finished product!

if we send you a set of JDM STI NON-HID headlights, you could still retrofit the TSX projectors?

it has projectors, but its an H1 bulb.

LightWerkz

11-19-2006 11:16 AM

Yes, but then keep in mind you would need an d2s oem HID kit...

Thanks for the info, but how about just the labor if the projectors are provided already?

I passed a TSX on my way home from work today... I got the attention of the driver and mouthed the words "Your projectors are mine." He slowed down and turned at the next light. :(

So, still down on that free time? Haha. Looking nice.

If I ever wanted S2k lights in my car instead of the STI swap you did, what would the upgrade price be? Just wondering, doubt it'll happen anytime soon.

AJ, $375 for projectors and $275 for labor.

what makes the s2000 projectors so special?

LightWerkz

12-04-2006 10:41 PM

Rare....Super Wide...Sharp....Intense color at cutoff...

....making them the best single xenons out on the martket currently. (that will fit into the impreza w/o serious modifications and retaining stock aiming screws :)

so i guess the tsx isnt so great afterall

LightWerkz

TSX is is great bang for the buck I always say. Perfect for the HID enthusiast that just wants an upgrade from their current setup. They produce some great color, and have pretty good distance. The width could be better, but already a huge upgrade from the stock 06 projector or reflector housings found on the 04/05.

But for someone who wants to have the best from the start, and has deep pockets, the S2k's are simply stunning.

Mykl	12-04-2006 10:51 PM

Man... I think my '04 has the best headlights I've ever seen. I can't imagine how they could actually be better.

But if I still had a bug-eye, you'd get my money. I just can't justify the price over already good headlights, even if they'd end up great.
