| Who does good rewiring jobs?
basically, i am going to get a HID system with projectors from a group buy.
i don't really want to do it myself, i am not experienced with wires at all. it involves baking my headlights, taking off my bumper rewiring all the shit in there.
something like this: http://matrixowners.com/?showtopic=80167
if you look at page 2, the cutoff is pretty nice.
which shop is going to be able to do this? and how much do you guys think it will be?
thanks!

^ Echoboy does rewiring? is that his exact SN ?
in that case I'll have to msg him about my projector rewire, it's usually a 2 hour job, 3 at most. I've seen it done under 3 hours by a guy who doesn't even know how to change his own oil, but every shop I contacted keeps insisting it's at least 5 hours +

well, i found out that i could get the headlights and projectors pre-made from a MO member.
the problem is, i need to make my DRLs to my highbeams or foglights.
i read the DYI sections.. i don't understand half of the steps and im afraid to cut the wrong wire. so...... yea.

Ask SoundsGood Audio. They are wiring experts since they deal with audio and wiring all day long. And yes, I've known someone who had their HID kit installed there. Although, it was a generic one and not a fancy projector style one you are looking to buy. I still think they will know what they are doing though.

thanks!
now how much do these usually cost?
i am looking to rewire my DRL to my high beams (because it's less heaty with the cops, i have yellow overlays for fogs)
apparently, there is a module where it could be done. the high beam bulb will just run lower voltage (dimmer) when it's in DRL
i have no DIY steps by steps for this, but a local corolla owner did this.
if not, foglights will do too. there is a DIY step by step in doing this but i am lost reading half way... http://matrixowners.com/?showtopic=49219 | |
