Default Got HIDS?

Well my TT retrofit is finally finished and done with. As you guys saw before I used custom brackets to mount the projectors. I am very suprised and pleased with the conversion. Do not let the size of the TT projectors fool you, they distribute light very well. Yesterday I was driving next to a bmw 540I e46 and the lights looked almost identical. Not to mention they are very blue and turn heads. Total Project cost was 300USD and about 1.5 weeks down time. Here is a pic, I'll try to take some picture of the lights from inside the cabin. I ended up re-using the stock lenses, I was amazed how dirty and fogged up they were.

Default Winter is coming.

I'd be interested at that cost, for sure.

Default That can be done no problem!

The main thing is the brackets. I had a custom set made and they work very well. I got 6 made for 50$. I strongly urge to get 6, i screwed up 5 untill I had a right combination. Sorry Kelly! If there is enough interest I can get more made. The lights are trully worth the money. An Audi TT set of projectors, ballasts, bulbs and ingnitors can be had on ebay in the $200-250 USD range for everything.

Default Increased output = safer to drive at night.

Why do you think people buy Euro lens'? Same reason.
