pics request: retro fitted 03-05 headlights
I know there is a Z with the q45 projectors retro fitted but I was wondering if anyone knows of any other retro fitted headlights on a Z. I have a TSX projector that I want to retrofit and I am racking my brain on installing it. I think my only option is to make a fiberglass interior for the headlight to mount the projector. but I dont know if it wil work, or if the fiberglass will hold up to the heat.
any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yeah I don't know... try searching for HID's and fiberglass housing? HID's don't produce that much heat actually, far less than halogen headlamps. Guess you could just make a quick little fiberglass housing and stick a hid projector in it and turn it on for an hour and see how it does.

I see what your trying to do, good luck with it.
Wish I knew more on the matter but I don't.
I do remember one guy a while back, maybe like 6 months ago who was offering this kind of retro fit service.
Maybe if you search you can find his name and he might be able to help?

I think Im going to give it another shot this weekend. But I may wait to make a mold of the housing so I don't have keep buying headlights if I screw it up. I ordered the supplies already, just waiting for them to come it.
I'll take some pics this time around and try to figure out how to post them.
*fingers crossed that this works out*
I'm still thinking that a fiberglass houseing is going to be the best bet. Cause I do want to black out the headlight and have the demon eye effect with the TSX projector.
