as most anyone knows there isnt really a aftermarket for sunfire projection headlights. so ive started to make my own.
this is what im aiming for when im finished except, single beam not dual, or else it will have a clear lens over it instead! havnt fully decided yet
now onto the pics
duct tape the inside of the lens to make a mold of it.
need some warm weather to start some fiberglassing.
mock-up, not mounted to the housing, just wanted to get a general idea of where it needed to be.
screwed in, ready for aiming
these are test lens's like mentioned. i will be sealing the gap at the back up, but if it causes problems i will get another set and redo it anyways.
didnt like the projector housing itself being silver in a black headlight housing, so i painted it black to match,
1st attempt at this, not scared to screw it up, its the only way to figure it out, once i do i will most likely put them in a housing thats not as beat up!

when you had the projectors on ... how hot did they get ??
or did you even notice if they did or did not get hot ...?
i was just thinking aboutit melting the back of the housing from the projector .....
or do they get that hot ??
Looks to be coming along nicely
Looks pretty awesome. lol at the hungover comment. painting the projector black to match the housing was a good move. That definitly made it look a lot more professional.
it didnt get hot enough to melt anything, but it does get slightly warm, still able to touch the back of the projector so its not hot enough to melt the plastic

Thank god you're doing it properly with projectors, instead of those retards who just slap HID bulbs in place of their stock ones. I want to kill those people.

nice project... cant wait to see the finished product...
how was the fitting on the back side with the socket hooked up
im guessing theres not much room for clearence
everything fit pretty nice, it don't stick out any further than the mounting peice on the back, so it don't hit the rad support.
