pretty sweet deal for $40!
I have the same style headlights and all I have to say is get ready to cut some @!#$ to get them to fit worth a damn. They look awesome and will be worth it in the end though, it took me forever to get mine to fit like I wanted but now I am really digging them. Oh, you will love the TSX projectors as they are really bright. Here is what mine fit like right out of the box...

You need to cut out some of that support in the back of the headlights and maybe trim down the top part of the back of the projector. The problem is projector sticks out to far in the back and it hits that radiator support or whatever that is back there. You will need to swap to your OEM brackets. Lastly, just be patient and don't give up until you have them how you want
I do have a picture of how I cut my support behind the headlights but I'm not going to post it, PM me if you want it man.

cool. the TSX projectors are right about the best out there for retrofits. considering its a low beam only putting it in the headlight housing should be easy...
the TSX is about 1" longer in length than the FX, so as said cutting behind the projector will be required in order to plug in the bulb socket and still be albe to set your headlights flush.

Much appreciated guys, joeyt gotta PM inbound.
I've seen shots at HIDplanet.com, and plan on doing the "washer mod" I swere some of those guys have a 4 inch color band.. really great stuff, add that with the ability to get 180 degree's of visible light infront of your car.
The only thing I doubt I will be doing is angel eyes... I like them because on my old ones they where cheap, but the look kinda tacky on a well assembled headlight IMO though. But i plan having someone look at them and say, "Man I didn't know cav's came with projectors stock".

that should be an easy retro fit if it matches up with the shroud and u can always cut up the radiator support like i did

So mine just arrived, and the construction is much better than the halo projecter jobs... I will honestly say I maight not even have to swap out stock mounts.
I'll post some pictures of them mounted (will be alittle while till me TSX's arrive) so I will put them on a post output picks.
As for people just looking for stocker replacement for HID, pending output testing I would say these are the best thus far.

Alright here's the scope. Joe was right about fitment.
I will give these lights a 1 out of 5, There fitment is so terrbile you cant even fit them with out taking a dremel or grinder to your radiator support.
I will see tomarrow when it's light out again and do some cutting, I am honestly thinking of just scraping the lights...
So my review= DO NOT BUY THESE LIGHTS, unless as Joe said you are willing to crop the @!#$ out of your rad support.

I'm getting "no cut" projectors straight from a new factory connection complete with angel eyes and 50 watt HIDs as a kit for $400. These things are the s#%t. No cutting necessary, they fit and look great! With the lens off, you can install the projectors in 20 minutes. Don't need to cut your lights or radiator support. Hello, now there is a product made for retro. Stop cutting up your lights to fit something that's not made for that purpose. Just think how much headache you'll save!
Any one know where I can pick up a set of those TSX projectors? I can't seem to find any.
Thanks
ebay, type in TSX projector

Na it's wrap that the lights come in to keep the lense's from getting scratched.
