Just to let you guys know, I'll be using FX35 projectors for my retrofit. I hope they fit well. I am using the FX35 projectors because I like having high beams.

FX35 will be good. I would recommend a lens swap with them, they look awesome. s2k or tsx lens on the FX body

No money, just need clear lens and maybe modify the shield. I am poor and I am still missing a clear lens for one of the projectors.

Nice project

Does anyone have any pics of the back side of the headlights? How do you reach the back part coz it looks unreachable even when using stock setup.

Here's my retrofit done in the Philippines. We used RX330 non-AFS projectors. I was going to install them on my Fit but I decided to go Bi-xenon on my USDM. This set will be installed in my Jazz.

I don't have pictures of the back but I was told that I will have to remove the driver side headlight to change the bulb. Not that big of deal to remove the bumper to service the headlight.

if you have the set or can get them extremely cheap go for it. Otherwise I suggest TL, or fx35 projectors if you want bi xenon.... or S2000/tsx if you just want single.

Those are the projectors of a 97 audi. im not sure whether they are single or bi. but im guessin is single.
The only option is those for the moment, hardly can source a pair without the high price tag in Australia.

should I go for it?

I think in my past days reading about the Audi A4 projectors. They're decent. Not the best but will do the job of putting down light for HID. I dont think theres much color in the cut-off but for a straight line. I beleive they're just Valeo's
