The whole thing took 8 hours to do, which includes running to home depot a couple times. The process wasn't too hard once we figured the first light out. With the way I discovered to secure the projector and still be able to adjust the light was great. The only issue was that the adjustment for the projector is behind the reflector, and the reflector is covered by the plastic housing, so we had to get them aimed (or what we thought was aimed) correctly with the reflector adjustments, then install them into the housings, install into the car, and adjust with the regular headlight adjustments.

Everything came out great, and thanks to 92_Senatra for helping me. The only problem we have right now is adjusting the lights. With the projector in the reflector, we aimed it, but when you toss it back in the plastic housing, the aim is pointed very low, and we didn't find that out until we were totally done installing the lights into the car. We did get it to adjust up some with the headlight adjusters, but its not enough. We will have to pull it apart again, and adjust them up with the projector adjustments, then fine tune it with the headlight adjustments. Other than that, everything is great, I am happy, but will be very happy when I have the aim done right. Once again I will have pics of the cutoff and output when we are done re aiming it.

The first FX-R B13 retrofit ever!

Unmodded, waiting to start

Lights disassembled, you have to heat oven to 350 degrees, the let the lights sit on some foil for 5 mins in there, then you can pry them open. Wasn't hard.

The back of the reflectors had a circle indentation, so it was easy to follow the circle and get a rough cut.

Smoothed out the circle and got the holes drilled that hold and adjust the projector.
