Still trouble shooting but I have come across something interesting, the ground wire from the harness (both driver & passenger side) are hot! They light up a test light ,and spark when grounding to chassis. Pretty sure this is not kosher. No mods have been made to harness and only power is from car original harness connection and power being supplied from power lead on harness.

 

Hey so u got the ds2 and what shroud? Cause when I went to the retrofit source, they sell the ds2 projectors but not as a complete kit ( meaning u got to by the shroud and hid kit) right ? But urs looks great and I really want to get it done but I can't convince myself enough to come out that much money for the lights! Idk maybe I'm crazy for nit doing it and I should just do it already!

 

When I got it I got the projector + ballast +bulb + shroud + harness as a kit, I think it's under the "complete projector kits" section...Not sure if you are looking for all of those together.

I have the gattling gun shrouds. I've seen some pictures with the apollo shrouds and those look good too.

I thought it was worth the money - it's definitely safer too since you see much better when it's pitch dark out (I've always felt a bit uneasy driving at night, especially after almost running into a deer on an interstate), and it's a fun project as well.

 

OK COOL. IM CURRENTLY DOING MY HOMEWORK ON THIS TO SEE WHAT ROUTE I GO.

 

For the GE the apollo or gatling shrouds work. Sucks tho cause the GD3 which I have I can only use the apollo since it fills in the space. I've seen the gatling on the GD3 and it makes the projector look small.

JDMjunkie - Think of it like this. You put a little money into your headlights to get better output and it looks great. And if later on you want to sell the headlights you can since many guys would rather have it done then do it themselves. I say its a win, win situation.

 

JDM, I have a set of OEM GE8 headlamps with D2S Minis already installed with Apollo shrouds. I also have 1st gen TRS ballasts which have been used less than a few hours with D2S connectors and also a set of brand new Gatling gun shrouds. Headlamps came off of my 2010 Sport with about 15K miles so it looks clean. If you want to go the route of it almost done for you, you just need to buy bulbs. If you want to change out shrouds, then you'll need to open up the headlamps and put them in. If not, it's a second set of lamps to play with if you're interested.

I'm selling this setup because I have another set of headlamps that have FX-R projectors installed that are currently on the car.

 

Got pics? Pm sent ! Let's do business !

 

Newb question here:

How do I take apart the bezzel? I've got the headlamps apart and I got frustrated cause I can't seem to access that little screw to remove that middle piece... any advice?

Don't mean to hi-jack a thread but in no DIY's is this removal covered..

 

post a pic of what your talking about. cause some screws you just can't
take out until you bake it open.
