Converting stock headlight assy. to projector-types. Possible?

[theveed]

orly: projector po parang yung lens ng LCD projector sa presentation... Think of a really, really thick contact lens hehe... Basically round spherical orb sya. Sa 626 projector nga ata low beam.

[chuaed]

kayo projector, sa akin angel eyes lang nga eh... nag inquire ako sa top gear sa new manila, it will take a week at most para kabitan... at na discuss sa akin iyun procedure... pakatapos nagbago na isip ko ayaw ko na... sana magkaroon ng modified headlight assy para sa optra din... unfair naman panay toyota, honda, mitsubishi, at nissan lang mayroon... masyadong unfair... grrrrrr :mad2:

[alwayz_yummy]

demand, pare.....masmadami sila,e....

toyota and nissan owner ako, pro wala din ung for my cars:liteace and auster/maxima....

buti pa spacegear may projectors....

Depo headlights ng Corolla/Civic/Sentra, mga less than 3K a pair, sa Altima, mga 6K, same brand hehe...

Supply and Demand lang talaga.

[alwayz_yummy]

buti pa nga sayo sir david...ung maxima ko ng, kahit parts, bibihira(unless kumatay ng other maxima..)

depo lights for local 97+ liteace masaya na ako...

*caloy,

thanks for the explanation. i get it now -- projectors don't have those silver reflectorizing thingies, or if they have them are very small.

both the low and high beams are H1.

*theveed, you think that's bad? depo headlights for the 626 are 4.5k a pop.
in a way it was not bad that my car got hit by a truck. they replaced a fender, the bumper, a headlight.. and some other stuff for just cost of participation.

Guys,
If you're goin to retrofit a hid with a projector headlight make sure you get the D2S bulb.For retrofit without projector use D2r bulb and aim it right.

orly: Hehe, mali din ako pre, 180USD a pair so mga 4-5K each din ang Alty eeek.

Ronal: What's a D2S bulb?

[batang_raon14]

was thinking of the same thing... been reading about this D2S bulbs on HID threads but I really don't know what this is? Do local HID producers sell these sir???

[ronald_m]

D2S bulb is specifically made for projector headlights.D2R bulb is design for headlight housing(e code) without projector.If compare these 2 bulbs side by side you'll see the difference.This is for OEM application.

Now if you're goin to retrofit a HID into a stock headight housing probably you need an adapter to fit your D2r or d2s bulb.Not really sure kasi di kopa na try tong route na to.

korak. afaik, most hid kits here have the d2s bulbs. ang pinaka difference ng d2s sa d2r is the d2r bulbs have carbon paint on specific areas of the bulb to minimize glare. these are installed in afaik the HID-ed 06 civic and the corolla altis S (?) not sure ha.
