ThatGuyFromAus Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 I would suggest for the easy way out Jdm projectors not sure about the aiming for lhd and rhd though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimmrican Posted November 4, 2012 Author Share Posted November 4, 2012 Where can I find this? I just want to buy it ToT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatGuyFromAus Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 I got mine of eBay for 70 bucks each I thought was reasonable since ive seen them up to 300 bucks, um there are other sites who sell import JDM parts i dont know any in USA only. http://www.ebay.com.au/sch/i.html?_sacat=0&_from=R40&_nkw=subaru+legacy+jdm+headlights&LH_PrefLoc=2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimmrican Posted November 4, 2012 Author Share Posted November 4, 2012 Damn at that price u practically stole them lol. I've seen a few bg5 projectors but how would I convert them to Lhd. This shit gets annoying Kuz I'm the only person who has a legacy out here and everyone else is a damn Honda fanboy smh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grimmrican Posted November 4, 2012 Author Share Posted November 4, 2012 I under stand that the lights look like this \__\ instead of like this /__/. What I also don't get is y retrofit jdm headlights if it already has projectors?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatGuyFromAus Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 http://sl-i.net/FORUM/viewtopic.php?t=6311 found this looks like you have to buy another projector unit to retro fit into the JDM unit kinda a expensive process when you think about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatGuyFromAus Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 If im not mistaken you have a refelective style headlight which is different to a projector style headlight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grimmrican Posted November 4, 2012 Author Share Posted November 4, 2012 Yea I have reflective housing with hids and it doesn't look bad at all but projectors look so much cleaner.

BAC5.2 Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 http://sl-i.net/FORUM/viewtopic.php?t=6311 found this looks like you have to buy another projector unit to retro fit into the JDM unit kinda a expensive process when you think about it But doing it that way is absolutely the most correct way to do a retrofit. It's still not actually legal, but it checks most of the boxes in terms of lighting performance.
