Prepping the Main Reflector

1) Using a Dremel and drum sander, bore the upper bulb socket (low beam) to the correct diameter (Nine8Six's projector stand off post is pictured, but the procedure is the same for most kits. "H1" style kits still require some boring).





2) Remove the small square post from the inside of the reflector as it will keep the HID reflector from sitting flush (if using Nine8Six's kit, at least the top needs to be trimmed so that the stand off posts retaining ring will clear and allow the post to sit flush).











3) It's not a bad idea to drill a hole into the top of the reflector and use a self tapping screw for added projector support. HID projectors are a bit heavy and if using Nine8Six's kit, they are also on a stand off post, further levering that weight out and adding stress to the OEM reflector.



Make that hole a slot so that the projector can be rotated a few degrees for leveling of the cutoff later on.
