    Thanks! Twas just wishful thinking. May araw dij yang q5 na yan. Buti na lang it's the ride with an h4 housing that needs it more. Bolt on pa din!

    o kaya TL na projectors? hahaha... nakaka temp kasi amg FXR although sisirain mo kasi headlight mo eh...
    nakaka temp mag full retro,
    Konti lang difference ng FXR sa Q5.
    RX350 na ang best bixenon na kakasya sa HL housing ng AE111.
    Di kasya TL and both are claimed to be the best depende sa user preference.
    Gusto ko din magtry ng Hella Gen8 or Gen6 Intemo using a different housing in the future. Tabas din kasi tong mga ito e.

    Hindi. I saw a memo somewhere that says HIDs are allowed as long these are legitimate and don't blind people.

    Read on sir. Dami sa olx na sellers.
    You can buy parts and DIY or opt for packages including installation.

    What you basically need are:
    1. 1 pair projectors. Mini H1 or Q5-R.
    2. 1 pair hid bulb. Type depends on projector model.
    3. 1 pair ballasts. You may need Amp to D2S connector depende sa ballast at bulb type.
    4. 1 pair shrouds.
    5. 1 set of wiring harness compatible to your original bulb type.
    6. High beam splitter wiring. To get high beam signal from your high beam bulbs wiring so the the high beam solenoids of the projector will activate.

    Angel eyes are optional depende sa preference mo.

    With a 10k budget, you might be able to get a good setup if you will DIY it. If you cannot DIY it, then ipon ka na lang muna. Biggest question kasi dyan is if you can DIY it. Having quality parts doesnt mean you will have a reliable retrofit. Kailangan quality parts and quality rin pagka install. If you DIY it, can you afford the downtime sa oto? when you install it and pag meron nasira? these are the things you need to ask first.

    Yeah, you're right sir *garyq. The things you pointed out were exactly the same concerns I have in mind aside from what and where to purchase these stuff.
    The cost of this project is not a joke and I don't want run into functional and safety problems later on after I install the projectors.
    That is the reason why I asked a lot of questions.

    DIY - I would love to but I don't have the time, experience and the right tools to perform the job. I'm still researching who can do the job well for me here in our place. I'm from Cebu, kaso hindi pa ako nakahanap ng shop o tao na reliable ang workmanship at talagang knowledgeable pagdating sa headlights. Mahirap din kasi kung back job baka masira pa ang projector setup mo at ang car. Yan ang gusto kong iwasan.

    Downtime - I can only afford 1-2 days downtime as much as possible. Sunday and Monday lang ang day off ko. Mahirap pag walang car. As early as 4AM alis na ako nang bahay for work and it's hard to hail a cab in our place.

    Mga bossing update ko lang to ha...

    I popped up my hood and did some research on existing headlight assembly. I saw pictures of it of the same model: Stanley P2183 HCHR-102.

    I just confirmed that it is an HID headlight assembly. As you can see in the attached pictures, may takip yong part ng Low Beam bulb. May nakalagay na "Warning; Do not remove this cover. High Voltage (25,000 volts) can kill. May picture dyan na naka-open yung Low beam bulb slot, I wonder kung pwede bang ikabit ang projector dyan na walang problema at maibabalik pa yung cover.


    Sa ilalim din ng HL, may rectangular box. I think it's the ballast.

    Specs written on the ballast sticker are the following:
    Light source: D2S-D2R
    Input Voltage: DC 13.5V
    Output Voltage: 85V, 34W
    Open Circuit Voltage: 500V

    Pwede kaya na yan na lang gagamiting ballast?

    Ito ba ang actual HLs mo?
    Yung nasa picture is the OEM ballast (Mitsubishi).

    Kung ganyang ganyan ang HL mo, stock D2R HID na sya.
    Projector, D2S bulbs at shroud na lang kailangan mo.
    Retrofitting would most probably need cutting the reflector bowl though since hindi swak yung mga bolt ons dyan since the bulb base is D2R.

    Check your actual HL, yung iba kasi same housing pero halogen ang nakakabit and walang ballast na kasama, pero meron lang abang na ballast mount sa ilalim.

    Natry mo na ba iblock yung portion ng lens para mawala yung upper step sa left at maging straight ang cutoff?
    Temporary solution lang habang naghahanap ka ng retrofitter

    Hindi ko pa na-try yan sir. I'm supposed to go that route hindi ko lang alam kung saan dun ang cutoff shield.
    By lens, you mean yung headlight bowl (reflector) — nasa part ba ng reflector yung nag-produce ng cutoff?

    Sa reflector usually yung nagproproduce ng cutoff if the lens is clear. Ideally that is where you should block, but you need to open the HL so don't go there muna.
    You can experiment by blocking portions of the HL lens while the light is on and facing a wall around 20ft away.
    Check kung saang area ng HL lens ang kailangan mo iblock to remove the upper step that shines on the opposite lane.
    Not sure though if this will work 100% but it's worth a try for a temporary solution.

    Ask ko lang kung comparable or mas maganda pa ang output ng MH1 or Q5 ni pao vs sa OEM ng Montero GLS SE and kung worth-it ba yung price difference between the two mentioned lenses. First time ko kasi naka-drive ng HID-equipped as factory stock being the montero and gustong-gusto ko yung output niya. Sakto kasi para sa paningin ko yung output nung monty kaya naisipan kong magpakabit. BTW, this is for an Innova. TIA!
