Best HL I've seen by far. Seriously would want these but as stated above I don't think I have the patience to try and do them. I'd be interested in a price, or a kit with all necessary components. Or an actual parts list maybe and where to find them? At any rate, absolute sweet *** job on them.

Any pics of the Headlights on the car it was heading for? Love to see what this looks like finished and on the car. I will definitely look into this when I find the evo at the price I am looking for.

Thanks for the positive comment
These are VERY VERY labor intensive. Ive done a set of Stage 1's which look pretty good. I guess you could call these Stage 2's which look even better again. I havent done a Stage 3 which would probably be a Stage 2 + installing a functional projector in the DRL housing for a TRUE quad projector set up.

Parts list can be found at update# 1

All parts can be bought from Matt @ theretrofitsource.com.... Tell him Stevo from OZ sent you

The laws of physics would make it difficult to obtain installation pix when:
* I live in OZ
* HLs are still in OZ
&
* Owners X is in the US

Ive said this a few times now:
The projector in the DRL housing is NON OPERATIONAL. I can only fit the FRONT half of a projector in there. No room to fit a WHOLE one due to:
* The design of the E46 shroud &
* some operation components in the back which get in the way that I cant hack away... So essentially it is a Quad Projector LOOK only.

The only wiring in the DRL housing are for the Red LED & Halo.. The OEM DRL bulb has been removed and the OEM DRL wiring just sits redundant at the back.

Yes it can. Currently doing a custom set for an Evo IX. Owner wants me to swap out the crappy CT9A projector for a set of TSX's + install a 3" lense in the foglight housing with a Red LED & CCFL halos for all 3 housings... Another Quad Projector look only..

Im sick of working with Red LEDs
