Hacksaw + Projectors =
Wednesday, March 01, 2006 11:56 PM
Well I got the rest of the parts for my projectors from Josh. I ordered the smaller ones so they would fit in the round reflector area on the front of the headlight bezel...

So when I test fitted them, I ran into this issue:





As you can see, they don't fit into the holes I wanted to put them into. The mounting screws got in the way, so I had to come up with something. Either I notch out the bezel for the headlights to fit through, or I modify the headlights to fit into the bezel. Since I didn't want to have the screws sticking out, option 2 it was.

So after some time with the hacksaw, a little black paint, and some super strong welding adhesive, I got this:







They should be completed by the end of the weekend, provided I get some time to work on them...

Yeah, I put positive to the center post, the one on the lightbulb, then negative I put to the post on the outside of the lense and it lit up bright as all hell. Make sure that the bulb is down and clamped.
