They did not fit so I just used the usdm trim pieces that were not painted.

Basically what happened is the jdm housings were not compatible with the usdm harness in the above post so instead of trying to source a jdm harness I just chose to put the projectors in my usdm headlights.

So if you want to do this you might as well save yourself some money and just buy the projectors and forget about the jdm headlights, as it makes for easy install using the usdm headlights and the cutoff will be correct.
Oh, okay, I thought you painted the USDM housing (long day, and I need some sleep. lol). It's pretty easy, but I don't think you'd want to open the headlights back again. hahahaha.

Yeah, I posted a reply here asking if Garm can just get these projector sets, but I'm not sure if he saw it since he didn't reply to it. I can get them for about $290 bucks with the HID kit already, but I have no clue on how much shipping is going to cost. It'll come from the Philippines.

They're unpainted, correct? If so, I'll take 'em and probably paint them glossy black. Or if I can find 1EO paint for the same price, I'll paint match them. Then I'll scrape off the eyelids I made, and slap them on. Thanks Mike. You're awesome!

I never got flashed for mine, but I love the projectors and would only go back if it was absolutely necessary.
I've only gotten flashed at on an absolutely dark, non-lit, road.

Yeah, true. Especially if he puts it up in the Micro Image store. I've been referring a bunch of Fit owners to Micro Image. I know my friend with a LB is going to want one as well. He was going to buy the Depolights headlight, but is holding off. I'll tell him that Garm might be getting these projectors.

I plan on getting a set from garm too. I just had the infiniti ones around from an old project and got a set of headlights cheap from a local wrecked Yaris. I don't plan on doing it since there is someone local who is really good at retrofits.
