My 2nd set of retros with output pics

Finished up my second set of retros earlier today and just got done aiming them. Came out pretty damn good. I'll get some day shots of them tomorrow but they look like any other retrofit for these cars. I painted the housings black. If anyone has any suggestions on how to tweak them for better aiming let me know but I think they're pretty much where they need to be. Cars 25ft away from the garage. Driveway is also on a slant downwards toward the road.

Beautiful set man, I still haven't decided about retros or aftermarket (spider, etc.) headlights. Although, the more research I do makes me think I want to do a retrofit.
 
Are the lenses already sealed? If not, you can shim the projector a little.

When I did mine, I put a thin piece of neoprene under each projector, and they came out absolutely perfect. Output looks good.

What bulbs are you using?
 
Thanks guys.

SE01, if you're gonna spend the money and have the tools do a retrofit. Coming from someone who's had spyders and stocks with hids these are the best. Depending on how much time you have plan 3-4 days just cause you have to wait for the paint and jb weld to dry.

Machinegun, they are already sealed. And I have 5K bulbs from TRS in there.
 


Pending day pics, I just might commission you to build me a set or two. Would you be willing to build for someone else?

It's a possibility. I'll send you a PM and we can talk details.

Here are some daytime shots.









I just noticed in the last pic I can see some pretty exposed wires there that I'll have to try and tuck better.
