    JDM One Piece/E46 Bi-Xenon Retrofit

    Finally got some jdm headlights and decided to do a HID retrofit since the beam pattern in the JDM lights would be reversed. I wanted bixenon projectors since my house in Arkansas is far away from the city and there are lots deer and things that end up in the road. I got E46 projectors which dont have the sharpest cutoff to begin with, but they are bixenon. The cb lights have a radius in the lens which makes the cutoff even less defined, but I like the output. I made a HID harness and then i bought modules that control the bixenon solenoids. The install wasn't that hard, but it was my 1st retro so it was a learning experience. I tried to keep the install as simple and clean as possible.

    Here are the pics

                  I'm not a fan of the projectors but looks like you did the job very well. Since you wanted the bixenon function, are you using your normal high beams for DRL's or something? Good job again.

                    they are not Projector Headlights. They are the real deal, JDM 1 Piece headlights.

                      I was refering to the E46 projectors he were using smart guy.

                        the jdm high beam isnt being used at the moment. i might make it into a driving light. But i have other stuff going on and i dont have a fog light button and relay to wire up at the moment.
