Headlight Idea

[oldsalero03]

I got an idea today to take and mount them inside the headlights and use a regular 9006 bulb inside. it doesn't look to be that hard. i just need a set of donor headlights and some time. do you guys think it would make them like a regular projector light?

[2fst4u]

what are you mounting?

[oldsalero03]

the center of the factory fog lights, i checked it out, i can make them fit, i'm just worried about if they will give off light

[AlbinoMonkeyRat]

plz no. just get some projectors retrofitted.

[flalero]

naw, let him try it first and see how it turns out. :alcoholic:

[Redog]

Somebody made projectors on here, they came out good, but very expensive :hide:

[flalero]

Yeah, but I don't think they mounted the OEM fogs inside the OEM headlight housing.

[El_Diablo]

i say go for it just so that we can see and if you screw up or dont like it change em..... im just curious to see how they look though lol

Actually, if I remeber correctly, they took the projector from either a mercedes or BMW from a junkyard. If they did use the stock fog, they probably just used the projector lense, not the entire unit, which I was suggesting.

nope........ was the entire stock fog unit

[-Alero-]

will look horrible dude.........

the light wont be half as bright as it hsould be. the foglight projectors are incredibly small, nothing compared to a E series projector.

hell i didnt like the stock fog projector so much i went and made my own. :P

[Cliff8928]

You'd be better off using a set of Hella 90mm headlights. A little modification and you could make them work, and they aren't really expensive, maybe $150/pr at most.

[Menace]

Anembra innovations sells projectors

[2fst4u]

anderbra made a set a long time ago. i doubt he'd be up for another set.
