Clean setup, I always wondered what a blacked out shrouds and buckets would look like.

how did he fit the TLs? and are they still bi-xenon?

what shield is being used for the high beams?

whats up with the fur backdrop? :lawl: lol

This isn't his first quad-projector retrofit on a 6th-gen Accord, so he's learned through experience. Personally, I'm more impressed by fitting the s2000s into the high beam area than the TLs into the low beam area.

Yes, the TL projectors are still bi-xenon so they'll double as both low beams and high beams. I haven't decided on how I'll wire them yet so that will play a factor in everything.

Example 1: both projectors wired for low beams, with TL projectors wired for high beams as well.

Example 2: TL projectors wired for low and high beams, with s2000 projectors wired separately to be controlled by a switch (if I didn't always want them on with the TL projectors).


Haha, Rich takes pics regularly with the fur backdrop...you'd have to ask him why. lol

Once I receive the headlights I'll take more detailed pics of the cutoffs, LEDs, daytime/nighttime comparisons, etc.

The cutoffs should be very similar. The TLs with ZKW lenses are comparable to the S2000s with e30 lenses...both extremely sharp.

They've been done before, so I'm not the first either. Maybe you could try TSX projectors? I'm sure they'd fit better than the s2000s, I've had to make modifications within the engine bay to fit them (and that's with the 4-cylinder engine bay that already has lots of room in most places). Thankfully the car was already under the knife so the changes were simple.
