question about retrofit
«
on:
August 31, 2009, 03:54:14 PM »
im checking out theretrofitsource.com, and i was checking out complete kits.
the complete kit includes:
Projectors
clear lens upgrade
OEM ballasts
OEM Philips 85122+ D2S bulbs
Shrouds
low beam relay wire harness
if i already have a hid system with ballasts, bulbs and a wire harness, i should only need the projectors, clear lens and the shrouds correct? or only the bulbs included fit the projectors? someone halpz me :]

What kind of HID system you got? For the low beams (9006)? If so, you cant use those in the projectors. The projectors use D2S type bulbs.

if you have a PnP hid kit for the oem headlights the bulbs will not fit. The oem lights use 9006 bulbs and the projectors use D2S bulbs.
since you already have the ballasts, and wire harness you would just need to order the projectors, clear lens(optional, not necessary for a retrofit), bulbs, shrouds, and a set of AMP to D2S ballast adapters

Looks like it, but in the link I noticed you can get the ballast adapter free if you buy the other parts from them. I just briefly skimmed thru it so you gotta check.
