I'm in for a non-etched set. No plans to change my LHD converted JDM projectors out yet but I'd rather have the option to do so than not. Do these make the FX-R projector a bolt-in retrofit aside from the small bit of trimming?

You will need to adjust the rotation, mark the mounting holes, drill, and bolt on the projector. This way projector rotation is set on your car, with your lights. Set them exactly where they need to be.

I'm veeeery excited about these, having a prefab bracket will greatly reduce downtime for my retrofit.

Nevermind, found the answer to that on facebook lol.

And if I was still sending out brackets here's what the etched ones might look like

Have you checked if the etching will be covered by the light? From the looks of your pictures it looks like the projector will cover up the etching, at least half of it.

Hinyo
04-01-2015, 06:33 PM
To be honest. It will be covered slightly by the projector than completely by the shroud. The idea for the etching is for exclusivity and to send more money back to the forum. Not all mods on cars are shown all the time some are branded but still hidden =)

Oh, I was just wondering. Wanted to cut it out and put a little LED strip behind it to light up the SL-I logo, or paint it so it's visible.

if you want yours to be cutout instead of etched that can be arranged. no additional cost. just when putting your headlight back together be aware that putting the shroud back in place will cover the bracket. LMK!!!

No it's okay, if it's covered there's no point. Always happy to donate to the forum though!

I might be able to do something for you. If you can figure out the size you need it to be (say cut out of a 1" x 1" piece of aluminum or stainless) I can see if I can get it cut when we do a run of the brackets.

Thanks, but I don't need it cut out if it gets covered up by the projector and shroud when completely installed. Maybe offer that as an option? Non-Etched/Etched/Cut-out?
Unless I'm not understanding you right?

I wasn't talking about bracket itself, we can cut something in addition to the bracket during the run.

What about a 3 inch ring for the front of a projector? I dunno that there'd be enough meat to use it, but hey could work?

So, when I order the FX-R 3.0 kit should I get the 2.5" or 3" ones?
Also wondering if a shroud fits in the light as well or am I better off saving the money and not ordering shrouds?

You will not be using shrouds, the factory bezel in the headlight serves that purpose. Get the 3" lens FX-R, the stock projector has a 3" lens so it will fill out the bezel and look better. I'll be using 2.5" in mine, but only because I have them sitting on my workbench and they didn't cost me anything.

Thanks Thom, its been a while since I had my projectors apart for the LHD conversion so I had forgotten about the shroud and size.
