the fitment of them requires nothing more then brute force and half a clue, wiring does not change if you keeping halogen :)

i think i have figured out what i want to do with them:)
similar to that first mpv.
i will add round reflector into mine to fill in the space and to fit a projector.and same with fog light space.
so it kinda will look similar to it

just not sure about whole matt black in it tho.
it will be along project tho. will have to find some donor lights and some projectors too.
i shall start this weekend:)
god it feels good doing something with my own hands again:)
i hope it all turns out great!

hahah, get them custom made.
or do a luce conversion, i swear those headlights are plastic:)
i was a bit concerned it wont work out for me, but after polishing it out i was just stoked!
cant wait when its finished and i can start on second one...
dunno if i want to put them together and later on do projector retrofit, or doit straight away...
sort of loking at cefiro or legacy projector.or anything i find at wreckers.or possibly just find reflectors and retrofit them...

yeah, projectors would be interesting, but will depend on the size and how you will remake the insides (reshape reflectors)

can't way to see what you upto :)
