'06 Dodge Ram Projector Headlights
Friday, December 29, 2006 11:52 AM
i am just about done with these. i wanted to give a little sneak peek and progress as to how they were going. these lights are the biggest i have ever had to do. they measure 22" long, and 12" tall! the silicone used to hold the lenses is not the nice "gummy" kind i like to run into, but rather a very rigid "plastic" like material. it was a complete pain getting the lenses off, but i obviously was able to after 40 minutes on one, and 20 minutes on the other. LOL

anyway, on with the pix....














i am going to contact the customer to see if he would like the ABS plastic to be chromed. he's got a silver truck as you can see, so it is hard to decide. both black or chrome will look good, so i will just leave it up to him to decide.

these are using E46 Bi-Xenon Projectors and Bosch 2nd Gen Ballasts with Ignitors. sorry, no wall shots yet. perhaps when i am done i will take some pix of some wall shots and the backs as well.

thanks for looking and your support everybody!!!!!!!!!

in the mean time, you're more than welcome to show off your work.

the night is young (for this thread)

..but I must say that this is the best Dodge RAM headlight retrofit I've seen to date.
I recall looking at a similar retrofit from a, so-called, premier retrofitter, and it
pales by comparison to yours

here's the direct link to their finished product illusion-lighting.com

oh my.
how much did the customer pay?

well, as long as he was happy with his work, and the customer was happy with the work for the money, then i have nothing to say at all.
to each his own.

hey, your opinion. do you think i should chrome these bezels, or keep them black?

ya know, i was thinking keeping them black, and then painting the stock bezel black around the outside edges. wouldnt that look sweet!?!

...which bezels are you referring to? your moulded abs plastic? if that's what
you mean than I would keep it as-is... it definitely shows off the projectors.
My only piece of advice is that the owner buys some chromed amber bulbs to get
rid of that unsightly amber refection when the lights are off.

btw. I'm not sure what the customer paid, but their site claims to charge $900
for labour and HID parts minus the headlight core.

i cant photo shop. but like the back and bottom lower parts of the stock chrome piece. paint that black, but keep the rounded parts chrome.
so basically, all the chrome pieces of the light will be circular, and the flat pieces will be black. damn i wish i could photo shop! LOL

yeah, ill mention that to him. it would look much better with the chrome dipped bulbs (or what ever they are. lol)

as for the price this customer paid.... all my prices are pretty much the same. you either dont help support my company and pay retail (680.00+/-), or you can do what you feel is fair to help support my company and pay only 300.00 in materials, 200.00 in labor, and 30.00 for shipping. you of course have to provide the housings to be worked on.
