projector headlight

[borednstreched]

is there any interest of projector headlights for the 03+ blasters?

heres a set i did for a buddy who has a 400ex. there lexus sc400 projectors with 16w bulbs. super bright, light up the whole river.

heres the same style lexus projectors in my cavaliers headlights (first set)

(second set) lexus lows and bosch highs

Are those HID??????? 15

Not a bad look-Maybe a short vid of them on in the dark??

I might be interested in this...Get us some pics of it at night.

Also, about how much do you think it would run?

the 400ex's no, halogen. but hid is very possible

the first set of headlights yes, 8000k hid ds2 with halogen low beams on the side

second set yes, 8000k hid ds2 lows with 10000k 9006 style hid.

he lives in omaha now i sent the lights to him awhile ago. ill see if i can get him to send some night pics and vids.

depends on what you want... a single projector, dual, triple.(halogen or hid) and for accents i can do halos, leds, ccfls.

his 400ex's with no extras cost me 150 to build using new oem projector units, and a new lexan lense. in the end i charged him 200 and had 6 hrs of labor into them.

my first set of headlights for the cav cost me 600 and the second set(currently on car) i have 1100 into them parts and my time.

also both the 400ex's and mine im prototyping for the blaster are shield-less.(always high beam)

heres a pic of the ones im working on for my blaster

bosch projector like the ones in my headlights. led back lit, with a super white led halo

Single hid?

How would it mount?

 

[borednstreched]

a single projector with a hid ds2 bulb in a 03+ headlight, with a new heat resistant lense would run around 230. as the whole back of the headlight housing will have to be modified to fit the projector.(the hid setup is the most expensive part) and youll have to have a 55w stator i believe.
i mount using stainless hardware, id have to get a headlight housing to tell you how the projector would be mounted. i can tell you i use slide screws out of gm headlights to make the projector pointable inside the headlight or it can be made stationary.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, 400ex has a battery, therefore DC voltage. To use hids on Blaster you have to do AC/DC conversion + battery.

yes your correct, i never even checked to see if the blasters are ac or dc(my bad) thats why i mentioned the 55w stator as i dont know if a 35w will charge a 12v batt correctly,ive never tried.
you might be able to get away with using a inline charger like a breakaway safety switch system on trailers with electric brakes and a 12v batt source as back up. they can charge a car batt off one of those with a 12v 10amp current coming from the truck.
all of this would require you to have a stator putting out a dc current.

anyone know off hand how many amps our stators are? left my fluke at work.

What ever became of this?

 

[borednstreched]

all that is needed to put a projector in a 03+ headlight. is a H1 style projector unit that will fit inside the headlight housing and clear the lense in front, run a 28-35 watt H1 foglite bulb. and done, granted its not hid but at least its a projector.
for hid, like mentioned before. youd need a batt, dc stator, rewire, mount ballast, hope the heat doesnt warp the headlight lense.

im swapping to a sport bike engine so i dont have to worry about the batt and dc stator or rewire.
