anyone make 04+ retro?

[tayl5645]

I was just wondering if anyone on here actually makes 04+ retros for other users. I understand people arnt supposed to advertise on here if they ar not a vendor so if someone feels the need you can PM me thinking about doing a black housing but just dont have the time to actually spend on it myself lately unfortunatly.

Alot of people wont do it cause of the risk of screwing something up, or it aint good enough

That is understandable but if there is someone out there that is experienced and would like to I would be interested

Search for "04 Retro" theres a couple people that have dabbled in them.

Drunkie is on his 3rd or 4th one now... you will prolly have to put out more $$$ than its really worth for the labor involved but he may be able to make you something

To be honest, it would be cheaper to follow the threads on them and make your own... its almost step by step with the writeups that have been done. Just have to get a spare set to play with and projectors and jump on the bandwagon

Go to theretrofitsource.com, they have several retrofitters there OR spend sometime in hidplanet.

We won't do it because even after you finish it, you still have alot of work on your car to make it all fit after we do the retro fit. Then there is the issue if condensation occurs (even after I've sealed a light fully I still get condensation), you complain to one of us about it, have to take it off the car and ship it back to fix. See how this can not really be worth it after a while?

Not too mention Prices would break down like this:
-$100 Headlights
-$130 Projectors
-$30-50 Shrouds
-$8 Sealant
-$25 bolts and misc stuff needed
-$60-75 HID Kit
-$200 for labor

So your looking at around $550-$650 for a set of retrofitted lights, but thats what you can expect to pay just from someone to do it, if you go through a professional service (someone just did that) its $1,000-$1,200.

And right now I can't do any retro's, I have enough on my plate with work and school, you would be lucky to see a retrofit, I'm going to have barely enough time to get the coilovers in. (if I were doing them) sometime in 2013.
