It really isn't that hard. And act fast, those sets for $70 aren't gonna last long. He only has 100 and I bet he's probably already sold more than half.

4300 isn't even pure white. It's more of a yellow/ white like halogen. I would go 5000K the lowest, if anything since it's pure white.

The Retrofit Source. If you don't know who they are, you're real lost... None the less, you'll eventually find out.

^^ They're selling the older 3.1 versions for $70 Brand new! It's a good deal considering I got mine from a Private Party new for $80 by a member on there.

I got the E46's, but you do have to trim them up for them to fit snug.

I see a copycat!

Naw, I don't give a shiittt. You'll need a Dremel to trim the bottom of the shroud.

So in all you need:

1.) 35W Ballasts
2.) H1 HID Bulbs
3.) Possibly Relay Harness
3.) Mini H1 Projectors
4.) Harware ^^ Include in the kit if you get it new
5.) Shroud Centeric Rings
6.) An Oven
7.) A phillips Screw Driver
8.) Flathead Screw Driver
9.) Headlight Sealant


I have some Great Quality H1 bulbs if you need them. They're the best of the best, in 6000K though.

They're "TC" bulbs, similar to CNLight. And CNLight is pretty much Moromito, with a different name put on the tag.
