    I'm using these projectors, but did anyone have to dremel out the back housing to make them fit? I think that mine are hitting the lens. I haven't fully assembled them but when I put the buckets against the blackhoused area/lens I'm thinking it hits. Will that change when I fully assemble them? Thanks

    I did not have that issue. You must be doing something else wrong. Maybe the rubber helmet you're using is not correct

    By buckets do you mean shrouds? If so on mine I had to cut a piece out of each shroud in order for them to fit against the blackhousing. Here is the video I used...go to 10:25 on the video.

    It would make more sense if he's talking about the housing rather than the lens.

    I was talking about the area where you put the bulb. I will mount then all the way and see. I cut the shrouds and made sure everything was seated all the way, but it may just be because I don't have them fully assembled. Thank you for the video, I will check it out.
