Modified Bi-Xenon Projector Headlights
hey pqhdsm,
- Yes, installed in the DRL housing. housing is no longer operational
- Yes, used a dremel to retrofit the 2nd projector then painted everything black.
- parts needed are:
* SSS headlights
* 2nd projector
* shroud
* HID kit (if your HLs dont already come with them)
Sounds like you have a a GSR with non-SSS HLs.... This is a different kettle of fish which will require more work. In the end its not gonna look the same as a SSS headlight

You hit the nail on the head - i have a non-SSS GSR, I didn't need all the other bells and whistles, just the HIDs. Maybe I should just PM you or simply email me bshiring@gmail.com - I would greatly appreciate it. Did you plasti-dip the halogen housing HLs? What kind of shrouds were used, etc. Here's a link of the ride - the black housing HIDs would look soo much better with the CF and the Advans..

Im a little confused as to the final look that youre after...
You enquired about E55 (Hella) BiXenon projectors & shrouds in post #44
but
you're not after the "other bells and whistles, just HIDs"
So what will it be? I assume you're happy to just stick with non-SSS HLs and modify these? If so, there are 2 potential looks you can achieve:
1. http://www.lightwerkz.net/gallery/ma...serialNumber=2
Pic extracted from:
http://www.lightwerkz.net/gallery/ma...g2_itemId=3856
This look consists of:
- non-SSS HLs
- E46-R shrouds (Replica BMW M3 E46 shrouds)
- HID projector (unsure of which model projector, most probably a single Xenon unit (low beam only))
- D2S HID kit
2. I dont know of any supporting pix of this look but its just a blacking out of all the chrome bits of a non-SSS HL (no retrotting of projectors or shrouds). Only parts left chrome are the:
- low &
- high beam reflectors
In your case, the inclusion of a HID kit for the low beam.
If you know of any non-SSS HLs with this look please post. Yet to see one!
