Nah. I reverted back to reflectors for that car. Kakabitan ko na lang ng osram night breaker laser which just arrived today.

Kinuha ko ung koito q5 projectors to be installed sa ibang car.

Hi Sir, naka Everest din po ako. I will upgrade my stock projector soon. What is the benefit of AR coated lens?

I plan to buy kits from Lightwerkz then ipapa-buo ko sa Chroma Lights, kaso wala ako makitang projector from Lightwerkz na AR coated lens.



TO ALL: Papacheck ko lang itong list ko. Your suggestion inputs are highly appreciated....
- projector: torn between G5-BRT, G5 EX, or G5 EXL (Lightwerkz recommendation is to get G5-BRT however I am after for long range light output so I think I should get G5 EXL because based sa nabasa ko Headlight Junkies mas long range ang G5 EXL. As per Chroma Lights, all G5 models fits stock shroud of Everest)

- bulb: Osram 66240 Nightbreaker Laser 4200k

- ballasts: AMP Hyluxtek HYlux 2A88 35W Canbus Ballasts

- H11 headlight socket adapters

* I am still thinking if I add Diode Dynamics RGBW Demon Eyes Pro Series with RGBW controller and Switchback Angel Eyes.



Thank you!

Quoting Lightwerks G5-BRT page, it says that the AR coating increases output slightly.

Quoting TRS naman, AR coating increases light transmission while decreasing bleed resulting in 10% more light and less bleed.

Cant really comment on those demon or angel eyes. Depends on what look you are aiming for. Ako kasi I always aim for that OEM look.

If its cheaper for you to get the whole retrofit system sa US, then go ahead. Sayang din ung natipid.

Buti payag si chroma lights na labor only?

I see. AR coated na pala ang G5-BRT.

Inadvise sa akin na since magpaparetrofit na din ako, isagad ko na with angel and demon eyes. Based sa reviews, Diode Dynamics ang pinaka malakas ng light output even at broad day light. I still have to check if discounted ang price sa Black Friday sale and if not then OEM look lang basta importante ling range ang light output.

Actually cheaper if parts will come from Lightwerkz and mas okay ang ballasts, plus 5k labor with labor & sealing warranty from Chroma Lights. Si Firedrake and RedLine kasi di payag sa labor only. I did not ask naman sa TheRetrofitShop kasi malamang mahal labor dun.

Sir pafeedback naman po ng Osram NB Laser. Yan kasi ung bulb na nirecommend sa akin ng Lightwerkz. 4200k daw para all-weather pero feels like 5000k if I will use Hylux canbus ballasts na 35w.

Ung night breaker laser ko is for halogens, not xenon. Hehe.

And hindi ako fan ng 4200K temps. Although ok ung visibility nya, it would always feel like di ako nagupgrade since on the yellowish side ung light output.

Kung night breaker laser ang gusto mo, check out the philips xv2. Mas better IMO.

Ano ba sira? Is that even related to the topics of retrofits? Di naman makita ano problem

Kung body panel issue, try going to talyer that does body repair.

Hi Sir. What brand of ballast did you use for this setup? Thanks.

What would be a better setup for fortuner 2015? 1) quad setup or 2) stock projectors on low beam, bi-beam projector on hi beam and fog bi-beam retrofit

[istan]

1. Para malayo bato. Mas mataas sa car yun ilaw = better
