Title: David S2K Retros Post by: thisaznboi88 on October 11, 2010, 08:24:42 PM So I been working on fixing David S2K retrofits that he bought from a guy on the forum. It hasn't been a fun 2-3 weeks. There was a lot of broken stuff, aiming was off, and he wanted me to black them out.
Anyways here are the Goodies (http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m77/thisaznboi88/Dave%20s2ki%20retros%20with%20e46%20shrouds/IMG_3156.jpg) (http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m77/thisaznboi88/Dave%20s2ki%20retros%20with%20e46%20shrouds/IMG_3155.jpg) (http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m77/thisaznboi88/Dave%20s2ki%20retros%20with%20e46%20shrouds/IMG_3153.jpg) (http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m77/thisaznboi88/Dave%20s2ki%20retros%20with%20e46%20shrouds/IMG_3152.jpg) (http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m77/thisaznboi88/Dave%20s2ki%20retros%20with%20e46%20shrouds/IMG_3150.jpg) (http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m77/thisaznboi88/Dave%20s2ki%20retros%20with%20e46%20shrouds/IMG_3149.jpg) (http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m77/thisaznboi88/Dave%20s2ki%20retros%20with%20e46%20shrouds/IMG_3148.jpg) (http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m77/thisaznboi88/Dave%20s2ki%20retros%20with%20e46%20shrouds/IMG_3147.jpg) (http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m77/thisaznboi88/Dave%20s2ki%20retros%20with%20e46%20shrouds/IMG_3145.jpg) (http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m77/thisaznboi88/Dave%20s2ki%20retros%20with%20e46%20shrouds/IMG_3144.jpg) (http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m77/thisaznboi88/Dave%20s2ki%20retros%20with%20e46%20shrouds/IMG_3143.jpg) (http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m77/thisaznboi88/Dave%20s2ki%20retros%20with%20e46%20shrouds/IMG_3142.jpg) (http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m77/thisaznboi88/Dave%20s2ki%20retros%20with%20e46%20shrouds/IMG_3139.jpg) Title: Re: David S2K Retros Post by: timot_one on October 11, 2010, 09:19:38 PM Nice work.

Sorry for the headaches. But I'm also hopeful for a job well done. Let there be light.

But I'm also hopeful for a job well done. Let there be light. I feel you bro. I was kinda iffy on taking on the job after I open everything up. Somehow I was able to work some of my magic. I really hope they meet your expectation. Title: Re: David S2K Retros Post by: mitchigan on October 12, 2010, 11:34:46 AM i'm all dizzy now lol, i hope the headlights werent hazy, such a pet peeve

Title: Re: David S2K Retros Post by: striktlyaccord on October 25, 2010, 03:20:57 PM Installed these retros yesterday with a lot of help from Tim. They're pretty decent, but the cutoff is eeek. Time to diagnose.
Title: Re: David S2K Retros Post by: timot_one on October 25, 2010, 07:45:07 PM What do you mean? I didn't really do anything.
Title: Re: David S2K Retros Post by: striktlyaccord on October 26, 2010, 11:06:29 PM What do you mean? I didn't really do anything. Don't be modest. Besides bolting and unbolting things, I had no idea what I was doing. Title: Re: David S2K Retros Post by: timot_one on October 27, 2010, 01:19:23 AM I literally did nothing more than ghetto mount some ballasts and plug in some connectors. You did all the shit work.
