seeing some of you guys going for far better optics/lighting than stock is quite rewarding enough.

Well done on the move again Bruce
Well, shucks...

I totally agree, though. My real drive is that I have fun doing it and LOVE seeing my retrofits on others cars
It's probably an ego thing.

Thanks for the orders, guys! The next batch of projectors will be arriving before long

Half-way there

Just thought I would share a couple of pictures of my finished kit. I finished up the passenger side retrofit with a set of non-amber lenses and the kit from Fred/Nine8six.

The kit is amazing and with Fred's help the install went smoothly. Now to finish the driver side.

Were you able to buy the lenses separate from the rest of the headlight? If so, where?

I bought complete new/used housings with the clear lenses. I've not seen just the clear lenses for sale anywhere.

Whoa.... George, niceee work right there. The polished gunmetal projectors you got are my favorite actually. Just waiting to get a bit of free time to pop my headlight open again and replace the prototype units with those very same.

Loveee your "new" looking pcar! Half of it anyway
