Have you considered sharing your HID retrofit photos, especially night shots, to provide a better understanding of the transformation and help others who might be interested in a similar modification?

Yea, Once I drive the car at night I will post night shots of the of the vision I get.

I made a youtube video on how to do it. One thing that the video does not show that I had to do is I had to trim the bottom half of the PVC reducer. So instead of it being like a full circle it is like a U. I have footage of the vision I have with the headlights but they're not aimed correctly during that time.

When I test fitted the headlights on the video they were fine fitment wise but once I adjusted the headlights I ran into fitment issues so I had to trim the PVC pipe a bit.

Also installed some HIDs a couple years ago. Never got around to sharing the results. I used the units that super.trick had shared a few posts back. I had to trim a bracket in the headlight housing to let the back of the projector fit in. Otherwise it fit very well after trimming. Output is fine, I'm sure clear lenses would give a sharper cutoff, but I prefer the more OEM look of these lens.
