Projector retrofit installer recommendation
 

Can anyone recommend a competent projector installer. It doesn't have to be a shop, it can be someone who works out of his home. The job is a direct bolt on type of job, no cutting or modification needed. Probably the hardest part would be to break open the headlight housing via an oven or heat gun. A bumper removal will be needed but from my car it is an easy affair and it can be done in less than 30 mins. TIA.

Private modder

Limitless will hook you up

rpm does it, probably still pretty pricey even if you don't need cutting
rent a heat gun and find an afternoon to tackle it
which car?

Modder for money, do what you want him to do.

A projector retrofit is one of the easiest mods ever, as intimidating as it may seem to anyone who hasn't done one before.

Literally stick the headlight into the oven, 275 for 10 mins (or until lenses can easily be taken apart from housing), follow instructions on how to put projector into the housing, depending on the type of headlight (H4, 9006, etc) you may or may not need to aim first. After everything is done, simply stick back into oven and do 275 for another 10 mins, then clamp it real tight with new butyl and it's all good.

No need to pay anyone for several hours of work for something that takes a few hours and a beer or two.

I've done quite a few retrofits and you should always check the rotation of the projector when installed on the car. It's honestly not worth it to pay someone to install a projector. If you're scared of screwing up. Go buy a spare set of headlights and use that to learn how it's done.

I've done a few retrofit kits before on my older cars, they say there is no cutting, but there always is, as basically you're hacking something in. It's not hard, biggest thing is be patient measure a few times cut once and the biggest pain is getting the lights to line up plus reseal the light so it doesn't leak. And yes be prepared to buy another set of head lights or have the down time to do it correctly. Over a period or 2-3 days don't expect to finish in 2-3 hours.

checkout headlight junkies on FB too. Tons of reputable installers on there.
