Retrofitting OEM HID projectors into OEM headlight housing is the easiest way to get that HID look without blinding others on the road. This thread is for the main purpose of showing people what options there are available and actually being able to see them.
All questions should be through PM or in the Retrofit/HID lighting Q & A thread

Hmmm. Here's my current retro set up:
Ghetto Halo housings
TSX projectors
Color modded (2 washers)
Philips D2S 4300k bulbs (not sure about the part #)
Hella Gen4 ballasts
DIY
Pics will come later when I'm not as lazy. I'll also post my next retro up later when I have more time.

Eating gold is like the equivalent of wiping your butt with dollar bills. At some point, it's going to come in contact with my ass...just doing it in a more elegant way.

Here's my new set up.
OEM housings (blackhoused)
S2000 projectors
Audi A4 Shrouds
Philips Ultinon D2S 6000k bulbs
Philips Gen3 ballasts
HID "kit" for 9005 high beams with 5000k bulbs
Retrofitted by Larry Wu for Jon (konatriathlon) and then traded to me
I opened them up to fix one of the A4 shrouds that had come loose. I also blackhoused them while open, but kept the parking light/turn signal reflector chrome. In addition to that, I also swapped the amber reflectors for clear reflectors.
Here are a few pics of them. No close up shots or cut off shots yet.

Ryann will be on the list soon. I just have to finish up his retrofit after I'm done with school. In a week and a half, I'm going to be taking my MECP license exam and then I can dedicate all my time into perfecting Ryann's headlights.

Yeah, the exam should be a nail biter. Kinda funny how I have my first install the day after I get my license. Good thing it's on an ECM member's ride!! I already know almost all of the ins and outs of the Accord. Ryann, you will be very pleased with your retro. I just want to make sure that they are perfect for you. Considering the amount of available free time I will be having, your retrofit will be progressing quickly.

Ryan's retros are gonna be hotttt. I heard what he wanted done originally. I dont know if things have changed or not. I dont think Tim's mentioned who or what install he's doing.
