i got them off of hidplanet and then just figured out the wiring my self.
Good stuff man. Looking forward to the finished product.
Can you post links to what you purchased? I did a projector retrofit to my tahoe but they don't work nearly as good. I had to use pretty small projectors though because of how narrow the headlights are on those trucks.
Still was a huge upgrade in light output compared to stock though.
One of the reasons you're probably not seeing output like mine is because of the lense you have on. You need a clear lense to have themax output, otherwise the lense is distorting the output. Ill post up links of what I used later on in the day thoughCan you post links to what you purchased? I did a projector retrofit to my tahoe but they don't work nearly as good.

Probably, but I hate the way the clear lenses made for that gen chevy truck look so I just used the stock ones...The cutoff line from them is perfect so I don't think the lenses are doing that much to the output.
Yeah, Iwas going to ask something similar.
Which exact housings did you use? Something like a Depot housing and then do you then bolt or glue in the BMW projector part?

Those projectors are point less. Only the highs are projectors and the lows are halogens. I got lightning headlights off eBay, cut a hole in the back to test fit the projector, then I bolted them on. Now I'm trying to find how to seal the rest of the hole on back.
Silicone?
Silicone releases gases that start fading the plastic lens. I think I'm going to do bondo
Didn't know that. Boom. Knowledge drop!
