Well I started doing a retro fit of my 18 optima s with the halogen projectors and reflector high beam. Unfortunately what I did is all I'm gonna do for a couple months due to having surgery. It's still neat what I figured out with the projectors at least and how they're going to mount in.
What I did was searched the internet anywhere basically for busted up Kia optima headlights because I only wanted the projector. I found an optima right away.
I bought the retroquik kit from TRS thinking I might need the fiberglass.. because I may have to make a mount.
I basically just cut the front of the shroud off that's attached directly to the frame.
I was gonna cut all the stuff off till I realized I could use that glass mount as a filler piece.
Thinking of way to make a mount I was like hmm... This fits pretty good on this thing.

It'll be a couple months before I rip the car apart but this few minute task of figuring out what would be pretty easy to do. Makes the task of taking the car apart much easier now I know what's going on inside the headlight.
