Re: Diy: Bi-xenon: Morimoto mini d2s 2.0

have you tried fitting everything in the headlight with the lens on as well? only asking because i tried e46 shrouds with my mini h1's, and the projector sits wayyy too far forward for them to even begin to look like they'd work, and it kind of looks the same in your case. the shrounds on mine kept hitting the lens before it was even close to being able to seal up and i had to use the gatling gun shrouds that came with the projectors.​

Just checked it out, and there's still room. Looks like .5-.75" from the shroud to the lens. I do need to trim away part of the front trim that sits in the lens though, but I'm not ready to seal them back together yet.

Will be using this when i do my retros!

Cool!

My accord doesn't really have a front end right now, so it would be quite a bit of work to mount the headlamps. Assuming the 'cutoff' of the stock headlights is level, mine should be level. If not, I can go back and adjust. It's just a gray sealer, not JB Weld.

what's the difference between these and the ones others have used?

advantages?

disadvantages?

I can't wait to see them mounted!

Which ones in particular? Morimoto H1's, OEM?

I believe the Morimoto Mini D2S projectors are the best value on the market for several reasons:

-You can by them new
-They cost less than most any OEM
-They come with clear lenses
-They perform better than 90% of the projectors out there IMO, only surpassed by TSX/S2000 and maybe a couple others
-They're compact, making for easy retrofits
-They're Bi-xenon, which is just another plus when you consider the benefits I listed above
-They come with good sales support
-Parts are readily available and affordable

This is so methodical, this is sure to be a great retrofit when completed. Nice writeup by the way. Subscribed.

Im definatley going to do this project but have 2 things on my mind.Now IS your retrofit project One of the easier ones to pull off?There is a bucnh Of DIY on these retrofit headlights and look a lot more complicated.The other question,is there just one type of OEM headlight Housing? Like as in a clear housing compared to Blacked housing.(ASIDE FROM DIY FOR BLACKING OUT HEADLIGHTS).THANKS
