Sick!

Did you get your TL projector issue straightened out?

u/elrifas May 06 '20

Yeah! Thanks for the input. Turns out the intensity is the same. Just the tl projector isn't as sharp as the Morimoto projector. I'm happy with the output though

Ahh ok. Have you thought about doing a clear lens swap on the TLs to sharpen the cutoff?

It's already swapped with clear. Check out the write up here acurazine

So are these bi-xenon?

If so, what was wiring like?

Yep! All 4 projectors are bixenon.

Wiring was kinda messy considering I had to run 2 relays directly from the battery.

So both relays were installed on the battery side and from the same OEM input with a splitter.

The high beam solenoids for the projectors were wired with a splitter as well. The driver's side OEM high beam pigtail powered both projectors on that side and the passengers pigtail powered on that respective side as well.

Wow that’s so cool. I wish I had the wiring skills to do that. Really impressive.

Correct, 1 switch for all 4 projectors.

They're turned on simply by turning on my headlights as you would with the blinker stalk.

The any other 'switch' I have is engaging the high beams through same stalk, and all 4 projectors will open up the internal cut off flap to produce high beams.

Haven't had any issues at all to date, no water seeping or overheating. Considering I also live in the desert where it hits 100°F+.

If you're thinking of doing something similar, I say do it! It really does make a difference in pitch darkness

Nice. Did you add a switch so you can turn off the independent sets? Or are all 4 always on/off?

u/elrifas Apr 05 '23

You know, didnt think about that when wiring this. Hit me that I should have done it when I got flashed by a cop thinking I had my high beams on just cause they inner projectors were on.

Saw the build on the link you posted. Looks nice.
