D2S 4.0 is the champ ! Easy to install , great distribution of light in low beam, tremendous high beam output , nice sharp cut off (almost totally lighted under the whole line ) . My favorite for sure .

@RetrofitSource 6 лет назад

@artcore9886 6 лет назад

Except that annoying huge drop on the left of the cutoff. Aim right, can't see anything on the driver side. Aim higher to compensate, blind oncoming traffic.

@binthetube 6 лет назад

ART CORE that’s why I filed some of the shield away to reduce the uptick. Then I added a gradual uptick on the outsides to help with the cornering and now it’s perfect! The D2S 4.0 is AWESOME! Easily out performs the base LED headlights on the 2017 RX350 & 2018 530i.

If i were to do a retrofit into my 99 dodge 3500, how well will the D2S-4.0 3" fit inside the housing? I haven't taken any measurements yet, but just eye balling, i would think a solid 3" projector would fit, and fill very nicely. Your thoughts please?

@TommyBlazeHD 5 лет назад

If I were you, I'd but a new set of headlights to retrofit. When they come in, pop them in the oven, open them up, and start taking measurements with a ruler or gauge with MM graduation marks.

I want to retrofit a projector for my high beam and fogs in my 2005 Mazda 3. Already have HIDs for my low beams. What would you suggest?

@RetrofitSource 2 года назад

Maybe something like the Mini H1, all depends on the size of the housing and how much trimming you're willing to do!

@beri232 5 лет назад

That 4TLR took a fair bit of time to warm up..... this is something I was a little worried about switching to HID's. Is that just a trait for this particular setup or are all HID's prone to a warm up period before achieving peak brightness? The last HID's I installed were in 2008 and they needed warm up time as well..... I had hoped technology had gone far enough to get rid of the whole warm-up deal.

@RetrofitSource 5 лет назад

Certain ballasts take longer than others to warm up, but thats still a fact of life with all HID systems really. However, by the time you're out of the parking light, driveway, etc - you'll be at max intensity either way!

Nice video keep it up I use Hyundai elite i20 2015 model with reflectors Can I get Morimoto mini D2S 4.0 installed in it And also can you suggest best xenon bulbs with goes with the above-mentioned lenses Thanks

@RetrofitSource 5 лет назад

most likely is do-able, does your Hyundai have OEM projectors in it, or reflector lights? We are not familiar with that car here in North America

@rfcdgaf 5 лет назад

Yes but WHY would you choose say the FX-R over the mini h1, yes ease of install but what do you lose for that??

@RetrofitSource 5 лет назад

Slightly more overall light output, really. All in all the FX-R isn't very popular these days because of how much more work it takes to install, versus the marginal (if any) gains in performance. Something like the D2S 4.0 is easier to install and out-performs it too.

@unspokendesign 6 лет назад

When using retrofitted projectors for solely high beam, would removing the cutoff plate completely increase light output or would that simply just scatter the light everywhere?

@DaJokrz 6 лет назад

Joel Klavins should have no effect as the shield is pulled completely out of the way, but considering warmup time...why wouldn't you run it as a dual purpose low/hi?

@RetrofitSource 6 лет назад

It would scatter light every which way. We see no real reason to completely remove the plate. If you're looking for a high beam only, you could permanently engage the solenoid for the "high beam mode".

@unspokendesign 6 лет назад

TheRetrofitSource Inc that's what I thought of figured, cheers

@SirBrass 6 месяцев назад

If I have a halogen projector, should I go with a HID conversion kit or replace the halogen projector with a HID projector?

@RetrofitSource 6 месяцев назад

It depends! HID in a halogen projector will be fine, but an HID projector with an HID kit is the ultimate combo for the best light output.

@MatrixGuardians99 6 лет назад

How would the Morimoto mini H1s 7.0 compare with the Aharon mini H1s 6.1 from retrofitlab? What would be a better choice when considering performance/reliability?

@RetrofitSource 6 лет назад

The Aharon projectors from RFL are akin to the ACME Super projectors - which while are not bad, aren't anything special by today's standards either. The Morimoto Mini H1 7.0 is by far the most advanced both in terms of actual light output, but design & reliability. The solenoid & cutoff shield mechanism is the biggest upgrade, virtually impossible to get stuck in high bream , which is a very common problem with older designs including the "6.1" from RFL

Which one does fit for a little cubic scooters?

@RetrofitSource 4 года назад

You'll likely need to do some modifications to make any of these fit, but the Mini H1 will be your best bet.

Do you do toyota aristo jzs161 headlights?

We do not modify them in-house, but we do have a great network of retrofitters. Shoot us an email and we can help you find someone! support@theretrofitsource.com

What is available for a 2004 Pontiac Vibe i prefer the look of projectors

@RetrofitSource 4 года назад

You have a fairly big reflector bowl so you can run any of the projectors that we sell. Just make sure you pick the proper harness size to fit your vehicle. www.theretrofitsource.com/projector-kits/retrofit-kits-universal.html

Is morimoto the best? Is the projector metal or plastic?

@RetrofitSource 4 года назад

YES! Morimoto is the best around! the projector is made out of aluminum!

@RetrofitSource Год назад

@bdyt 3 года назад

HID and LED projectors are street legal in the USA for Fog Light use only. Not compliant with DOT / FMVSS108 and not street legal in the USA for Headlights.

@RetrofitSource 3 года назад

Correct, but state laws do differ so make sure to look up what applies for your state.

Is it safe to put a LED bulb into the mini H1s

@EisBlade 6 лет назад

Suyog Singh Yes, HID and LED bulbs should go into projector housings only. I prefer to retrofit the low beam to projectors and use OPT 7 "X" bulbs (4200 lumens each) for high beam using stock reflectors for better spread since oncoming traffic will never see them.

@EisBlade 6 лет назад

I'm surprised this company still puts so much into HID technology but whatever sells, right? HID has moving parts inside that decrease in performance over time whereas LED stays consistent. **Check out MLED or i.Lens projectors.

@MrSuyogsingh 6 лет назад

JT okay...but while doing the lights we came to a conclusion that LEDs dont perform when put inside a HID projector...so gave up and bought XB55 H1 into mini H1s and to match bought 5500 K morimoto d1s into the new evoXR projectors...happy with the output... insane light

@RetrofitSource 6 лет назад

Naif, Morimoto, Philips and Osram are all great options depending on your budget, but if money is no object, go for the Osram CBB: www.theretrofitsource.com/hid-parts/hid-bulbs-d-series/d2s-osram-xenarc-66240-cbb.html

@michamrozek1463 3 года назад

4tl-r or h1 mini? Pls help i cant make decision :(

@RetrofitSource 3 года назад

I would honestly recommend going with the 4TL-R projector, that will be able to use the higher quality D2S HID bulbs, and will provide a better beam pattern and more light output! I have linked those projectors for you here: www.theretrofitsource.com/bi-xenon-4tl-r-P-M-4TLR?quantity=1

@officervladimir1874 3 года назад

Yes go with the 4tlr the hotspot is a amazing, the width is okay but that's to be expected from the non curve shield. The color is amazing with that exotic color flicker 😍😍

Hi Matt I sent you a message through your business I recently picked up for Acme 2.5 from a friend that bought them from you he never got around to installing them in his car so if you could check that out and get back to me that would be great I just have some questions about hid with drivers for that type of projector I'm retrofitting them on a Mercedes w208 and I want to start offering that service to the guys in this community because there's not a lot of people that do stuff for that chassis and the ones that do charge a ridiculous amount of money and I hate to see people getting ripped off I checked out your prices and I think everything's reasonably priced I'm ready to get back in the business I look forward to hearing back from you guys Godspeed

@mohamedali-wm6eh 5 лет назад

@TheThotWhisperer 5 лет назад

no they're different. Different light pattern. Putting HIDs in halogen projector will blind oncoming traffic, though its not as bad as a reflector housing.

@brosk1s883 5 лет назад

Lens is different, projector bowl and cutoff shield are the same though. Retrofit HID projectors are also illegal, especially without headlight washers and automatic leveling.
