my retrofit project dec 31st 2013

[marcus]

here is it fr TRS! sorry its a little messy and dirty but overall it was a fun project.. cutoff on the TRS is up there definetely can compete with luxury projectors..

Looks like a great job all around! I'd like to do something similar soon.
I gotta say... Looks a bit like your car likes to have a good time. :smoking:

On related news, I wonder how some black eyelids (matched to your diffuser's color) would look like with those lights. Might be worth a quick photoshop to tell for sure, but I think it would complement the diffuser nicely since it seems the borders would match up perfectly...

[marcus]

I'm satisfied even with the cutoff a little slanted... Not a fan of eye lids either but that's just me..

Cool light conversion kit!

[marcus]

thanks..

Any worries about the red shrouds? Around here red within the headlight would very quickly result in an expensive ticket.

[marcus]

i thought of it as well..but red shroud vs red lights.. i dont know how and for what reason they gonna ticket me for having a red colored shroud..

Here you can't have any red within headlights (as it makes them look like tail lights). It doesn't matter if it is red lights, red reflectors, or red paint.

now im worried... we shall see.. what about the honda fit is this illegal in usa?

[jetaimejsc]

i like it. Definitely unique in my eyes. How much did you pay for the whole kit if you dont mind me asking?

Nice job! You lucky hatch guys not having to cut everything a million ways :P

Mine's cutoff is a bit slanted as well. I think the Yaris headlight housings are a bit canted or something.

[marcus]

fixed the cut off on the right side since i had to open it up again due to moisture.. the cutoff on the left side is a little off but dont bother me..

For those with the Morimoto Mini H1, you can actually tweak it for a straighter, and more centered cut off:

lol, open it at home, not at work. :wink:

Awesome work!! I didn't car earlier in 2013 but recently revised mine. Light improvement is insane over reflectors. I don't think we need to mod our cutoff as ours is now on the 6th version and does not bow.

[marcus]

cutoff is sweet...although if i have 2 heavy dudes on the back this thing will start blinding people ahead changing the angle up high.. i had to drop it down a bit..lol

[barefoot_bajan]

i'm liking this conversion..

and really interested in doing this to my 02 vitz

which kit would you recommend as a best fit little to no cutting for an 02 vitz/echo RS 5dr?

never seen an echo up close but im sure the kits will fit without cutting since you have choices which shroud you wanna use big or small....one thing i like about the hatch is their huge headlight.

Well done Marcus on the headlights, U made ur car unique. I see ur hard work paid off.

[tmontague]

Do you have a link to the hid's you purchased for this mod? I like the look, great job

[marcus]

Sorry guys haven't logged in on a whole while but this is from retrofitsource.com lense and the led ring. Although the led ring didn't last a year, after 8 months it started to lose sections of the light around the ring then lost it all after about a year....
