A while back, I bought an unused, parted-out Nine8Six headlight kit from a fellow Dutchman. Since the kit was already parted-out, it gave me an opportunity to modify a few things.

I used different angel eyes; 85mm SMD3014-led, 6.000k, with automatic dimming function (when lowbeams are turned on) :



Glued the lens and angel eyes using JB Weld and I added spacers between the reflector and lens holder (for extra security in case the glue fails and to get the lens perfectly mounted into the shroud) :




Shimmed the bulb (more about this here) to get the hotspot exactly centered:



Testing and levelling:



Next and final step: clean and seal the headlights..
