Hey,

I started retrofitting my P5 headlights with a set of Mazda 6 projectors. I've read that they're not the best projectors around, but I think I've got the beam where I want it after playing around with the HID bulb's location inside the projector reflector. I still need to finish it up, but ran out of time tonight. Check 'em out...

I forgot to mention that reused the stock reflector to mount the bulb, as the Mazda6 projectors use an H11 bulb and the P5 headlight uses the H7 bulb.

Made a different beam patter in the first picture.

Can't come up with a shroud, any ideas!!??

those look pretty good. i love HIDs, and the plug-n-play ones just dont come close to projectors. looks like you have some condensation inside the lense tho.

Thanks man. I still want to play around with the projector to see if I can get an even better beam. I haven't sealed the housing yet, so any condensation will be gone.

Looks freaking awesome but Im sure pictures dont do the justice! Are you working tomorrow?

Did some more work to the actual projector, the latest beam pattern is in the first post. I Hope i'm free this saturday guys, if that's the case you're more than welcomed to stop by. I'll give you a call.
 
Nice man. I personally like the sedan lights with the projectors, like Hollywood2009 or Boomergt. I'd like to find another headlight set and do this down the road. Was it hard to do?
