Not completely finished, but thought I'd give a quick teaser. Started it's life as a D9 H4 set. Don't have them wired in the car yet so I just used a LED flashlight stuck in the projector to give some preview shots. High beams will be taken care of by some euro driving lights, but I have left enough space that I could put a smaller lens for a high/auxillary lighting.

i like it. is that one of the fiberglass buckets from the group buy last year? it looks good, but that one projector looks a little lonely.

Alex, do you know, have they started producing these for the non-turbo headlight buckets yet? I've pinged them about a dozen times, and they never return my email. Also, I was under the impression that HID kit was going to be dual projector...?

Not sure about the non-turbo stuff. I do know they just sent out the first dual projector turbo set to a guy on rennlist.
Mine started as one of the square H4 sets they sell that I bought second-hand. I then modified them with my own projectors.

Maybe I don't understand your question, do you mean non-951/S2? If so, there's a pic of a 931 with one of their setups on the website.

I assume that Ideola meant the d9 projector version of the 924/931/944 cgt buckets, again assuming that he didn't know these were a DIY modified version of the d9 square light kit for the 951 and not the d9 (dual) projector setup.
