Default Finally my projector retrofit

Ok guys, here it is. Tell me what you guys think. I will be willing to do other peoples retrofits as long as they pay shipping both ways sending everything, like headlights and projectors and I will only charge $100 for the job. It may also take me about 4, MAYBE 5 days at most to do the retrofit, but more than likely not even that long. That is from the time I receive the headlights.

It's the stock HID's for the audi a6. It's made by hella, but also has the audi symbol printed on the ballast. The projectors and HID kit cost me a total of $356 shipped and insured from ebay. I seen the audi a6 projectors with HID kit all for $300 plus $25 shipping. Now that's a better deal than mine. The only other thing I bought was jb weld which is like $4 and some weatherproof taping or something to seal the back. And that cost like $12 I think. No leaks in my headlights whatsoever. And the only tool you need is just a dremel and I hardly even cut the back at all. I mounted it so I can still use my stock adjustment screw which came in handy for me.

Thanks man. Took me about a total of around 12 hours, give or take an hour or two at most. If anyone wants an installation done, I can do it for them as stated above. Just let me know. Thanks.

lol I know. I'll be gettin' some this weekend I hope. I finally finished aiming them pretty good right now. I might have to slightly aim them down a tad, but it's good where it's at right now and the cutoff line is just great. Kind of distracting while I drive because I just love the way the light output and cutoff line is. lol. I can't help but stare.
