Here's a little retrofit I did by swapping the Halogen projectors for HID projectors. I used the Morimoto H1, I was tempted to use the S2000 ones, but those are for another retrofit project.

HID's look good Calamity! You should bring that MCSS out to some of the Houston meets. It would be nice to not be the ONLY LS4 out there!!!
