Here is it finally ! As promised!
More information on aiming http://www.hidplanet.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=17073 Everything retrofitting / HID http://www.hidplanet.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=17073 Some people asked about the cost. Let me just say if you buy everythign NEW it will go up in the 700$+. Use ebay. COST : Projectors: They go from under 100$ to 200$, xenon or bixenons(high beam included). Ballast: Cheapest ones will be around 100$, expect to pay 150-200$ for good ones. D2S bulbs : probably around 40-50$ used. The normal color is 4300 K (white). Clear Lens : You can either get the stock lens defrosted or buy clear lens from me. 100$ Misc: Screws and tools if you don't have all necessary. $$$ Shipping for all those individual items : ~50-80 Total cost : 390-630$.
