Wooaah 350 degrees is too hot. You only need to set the oven at 150 and headlights in for 3-4 min. You will melt your amber reflectors/marker if you go too hot or too long. I melted my reflector on my drivers side at 150 degrees and 10 min in the oven.

 

Any help wiring the high beams?

 

i just stuck the wires into my stock headlight harness......... o_o... LOL

The light output is really nice, and the high beam works well too. The only complaint I have is that I wish peripheral lighting was a little better, but it's not a big deal. I'll post some pics soon

 

Sweeeet. Post pics soon!

 

pics are in, no nightime cutoff ones though, dont wanna see them anyway.. it's off. haha YES my car looks like a frog/crazy person

 

Looks pretty good there. Always liked those shrouds and had them on my 8th gen Civic, too. Next is to show the night shots!

 

looks great jason. all you need now are some cutoff night shots after you finish the rotation and alignment.

 

i'm too lazy to readjust them, the right side just tapers up a little on the far right and down on the left, it's not a big deal. Really sharp cutoff though. If you want I'll just step outside and snap two pics really quick. haha

 

sorry they're not DSLR Perfect, my double-A powered point and shoot will have to suffice There's slight slight glare as you can see above the beams but I just drove in front of my car in another lowered fit tonight and they're nice, no annoying hid glare at all.





the blue cut-off isnt THAT noticeable in real life, but it is a little noticeable, it's a nice touch

 

That isn't too bad at all. Depending if you're on a level surface, I'd line them up a bit.

Overall, good job!

 

if i just buy the projectors and the shroud, can i use my pnp kit?

 

You'd need bulbs too. So really the only thing you'd be reusing from your pnp kit are the ballasts.

 

Welcome to the HID retrofit club. Another GD3 member lighting up the night roads.

 

awesome job on the retrofit, everything looks nice. I am also currently trying to retrofit my GE8.

I'm still pretty new to things, but i just want to do it right (for once). I have Bi-xenon Morimoto Mini H1 4.1s with a H1 HID kit (Notto SE). I have been searching the forums on ideas but I am confused, even with general instructions, as to what i really need to do. My friend and i took a look at my bulbs and i figured that we'd probably need a soldering iron? I just wanted to know what steps and tools you used to actually complete your retrofit looks so nice D:

As of now nothing is done to my car, all the items are still sitting at my desk since i have absolutely no confidence in myself

 

Send me an email at andrew@theretrofitsource.com and I'll forward you the Mini H1 how-to PDF.

We're going to put some LS460/STi-Rs in my Fit next weekend with the clear shrouds. It will look pretty crazy!
