Default Nice work

Any pics of the retrofit and how you installed the projectors? What housing did you use-Stock JK? What ballast you using? Thanks for the help, very interested in trying this just really new to HID(ie I dont know anything about it).

I agree the cut-off looks similar to the Projectors on the acura TL or TSX. Looks great!
