Ha! It's got its share of flaws when you get up close and personal...very much a work in progress, but thanks

I still don't have the LED projectors or CCFL DRLs hooked up, but I like this evening shot.

I really like the Angel eyes on your projectors. Can't wait until mine arrive.

Don, I have a feeling you'll want to install those before xmas

Charles is (super) kindly putting up a DYI for you guys. Bookmark and use for when a bored weekend shows up. Takes about a day to do. Two days if you paint/cure the interior of your headlights.

You've seen Charles' DIY I'm sure: How To: Retrofit Headlights With HID Bi-Xenon Projectors

You'll have to forgive me for referring to Charles with your name. I'm old & senile

Yes, I've seen Charles' work & his DIY, but do really think this grasshopper could learn at the feet of the master? Fred - remember my nick name - "Sparky"
