yeah but when your happy with your car and the only thing lacking is the lighting then you have customers...I have a ton of other stuff i could do but i want better lights...cant seem to find any decent ones and im not that great at creating stuff like you are..check around the other boards..there is a demand for these...when you start selling let us know

I would Def. buy from you if you made it to where you just drop in the H4 Bulb of your choice and then just mount up! I want to do an HID setup on my 95, but the kits that are out there are few and far between and most are for the '98-'02 birds!
Plus, I freakin Love the beam pattern for both low and high, and there seems to be no glare and a Perfect cutoff!

Let us know, cause I will paypal you when you are ready, even if it is just a couple of custom orders, kinda like Jaison over at Third Shift!

Justin,

Life has been getting in the way recently (just got married, house hunting, etc) but I will get back on this project shortly. The setup I put together uses all OEM equipment (obviously not GM equipment) including the HID D2S Philips lamps and gen3 hella ballasts. A much cheaper solution could be to use a cheap HID kit but that uses this lamp design. However the tricky part will be the high beam wiring to work the solenoid on the projector itself. I could possibly make this an option. Give me a little more time.

Brian, dude I totally understand about the whole marriage and house thing! It can pretty much consume your whole time, I went through all that a few years back! whenever you are ready, though I am considering getting a Kaixen 6000K kit and use my Conversion housing that I got from EuroLights until I decide to try your write up or you have more time to make a couple and sell them!
I'm crafty, but not that crafty, and knowing my luck, I'll prob end up screwing something up!

But whenever you get the time, I'm sure I am not the only one that would love to have you make it up!

My old setup used a Kaixen bi-xenon H4 kit with hella free-form housings from rallylights.com . It was a very good setup for what it was and produced decent patterns. I actually just sold my old setup to someone on the forum not too long ago. It will def. work better than what you have now but the only thing difficult about my new projector setup is the bubble lense that I thermoformed. From there, everything is very straightforward and simple. I'll keep everyone informed on what I come up with as far as a kit to sell.

Brian,
I think you finally convinced me to go to the next level like you did on your kit. Hurry up with a drop-in kit and then sell it to your WS6 brother

If I was to think of at least one buyer for the kit it would def. be you. The molds are being perfected as we speak and I should have some formed product shortly.

nice work! You should really make some of these to sell! I think there are plenty of members on the board who would love to have projector HID's! If I can find a nice f-body with low miles before summer, I'll DEFINATELY hit you up! Keep it up!

Also, can this be done to the 98-02 Firebirds?

The lens (which I'm working on), will be just about the same, but another projector will prob be a better choice since the FX I used is a bi-xenon unit. The FX is a little bit long for the 98-02 cars so choosing a small low beam projector should fit a little better. There is a retrofit using this projector for the 98-02 cars in the hall of fame so check out that install. He only seemed to cut the bucket a little bit to make room for the FX projector.

If you only wanted to retrofit the low beam lamps only, you could find a small HID projector to do the job. There is a local donor car looking for me to work this out so he is being a guinea pig for me.

Blackbird: Thanks for the write up. I should be done with mine in a couple days!

Please start a thread on it and it may end up in the Lighting FAQ.

I will once its all done. Just for the record, it's a good bit of work. Patience is a must! Because error will occur. lol

Good work man. I hate you!

I'm trying to make a cover for my LT1 Camaro with my projector retro. What a pain in the ***! Using lexan as well. I just have to get the hole made. I'll dig out some holesaws tomorrow and make a new plate to drill a hole in. Tried to dremel one to no success due to it being to small. Trying to use the supplied shrouds but may have to go another way. Made my own mounting rig to hold it to the factory headlight area. the plate will just be decorative and hide the empty lowbeam socket.
