[QUOTE="venomous99, post: 9714690, member: 6045"] so the brown truck arrived and dropped off a medium sized box from theretrofitsource.com...the contents neatly packed in the box contained: FX-R projectors(high beam capable), morimoto eballasts(house brand), harness/wiring kit, 4300k bulb, e46 shrouds and last but not least some stickers to be proud of lol [IMG]http://lh3.ggpht.com/_CUxNADK1RVg/S_s_w4eUbTI/AAAAAAAAFNs/ZCXu5qc_E3c/s800/DSCN2283.JPG[/IMG] side view of the projector. this guy is pretty beefy. [IMG]http://lh6.ggpht.com/_CUxNADK1RVg/S_s_xnAUjFI/AAAAAAAAFN0/ATmVZieBJE0/s800/DSCN2284.JPG[/IMG] i estimate i will be cutting a good portion of the shrouds to help follow the shape of the reflector.
