It's a quad projector setup to replace the current halogens. I thought it would be too much to share at one go, so making it to two sections. I'm also looking for suggestions for a nice setup towards the end of this section, hope to hear from you guys..Reason I'm doing this project is due to my crappy current beam after being racuned (poisoned) by FX-R output beam pictures around the net.Two pairs of projectors:1. E46 AL bi-xenon2. FX-R bi-xenonThe setup will be using an E46 projector internal headlight housing and FX-R retrofitted into the high beam reflector bowl. The FX-R will be the low and high beam, while the E46 is to flash and high beam. Due to the flashing requirement, the E46 AL projector will be using halogen H7 bulb. Setup is mostly similar to DJLeonardo setup from hidplanet.com. Okay on to pictures..Headlight assembly arrived safely from the US<img src="http://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3145.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3152_G.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />AL logo<img src="http://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3155.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3147.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Slim digital ballast for HID, bulb is D2S 4300K, ballast is 35W<img src="http://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3289.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Removing projector from the housing<img src="http://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3305_G.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3306.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3308.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Tri wire solenoid on AL bi-xenon projector<img src="http://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3158_caption.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Then move on to rebasing the H7 bulb for D2S socketD2S and H7 focal point looks compatible<img src="http://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3298.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />D2S in its placehttp://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3295.jpgRebased H7 in D2S holder, bulb is Philips 55W very yellow outputhttp://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3296.jpgShield/shutter removedhttp://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3313_G.jpgFX-R projector arrived!http://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3317_G.jpgFX-R and E46 AL projector size comparisonhttp://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3318_G.jpgComparing clear and not-clear lenshttp://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3324.jpgFX-R colorful cutoff, camera white balance is wronghttp://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3338.jpgDisassemble the projectorhttp://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3340.jpgEverything disassembled for paintinghttp://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3342.jpgPaintinghttp://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3349.jpgACE hardware flat white high temperature paint, lets see how well it stand against the heathttp://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3354.jpgPaintedhttp://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3356_G.jpgReassemblehttp://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3358_G.jpgMockuphttp://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3359.jpgGetting ready to cuthttp://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3361.jpgCuthttp://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3363.jpgFittedhttp://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3365.jpgFrom the fronthttp://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3371_G.jpgWhite shield resultwith flashhttp://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3382_G.jpgno flashhttp://i791.photobucket.com/albums/yy197/aidilj/projector/IMG_3383_G.jpgNow I'm still waiting for another pair of E46 shroud to arrive. I've mockup how the final thing should look like below and thinking whether I should paint the shroud black like the following EVO X retrofit work.
