it doesnt matter if any one has done it for the CL.
it's the same process.

if you want to do it, read up and learn. buy a spare of head lights and play around with it.
these kinds of mods are hands on, and you will only learn if you get y our hands dirty

No I know I was just curious if it has been done so I can get an idea of whether or not it looks clean before I go but spares and projectors $$$

look at the 2nd gen TL quad retrofit thread.

the TL is basically an older brother or a cousin to the CL.
it still has the basic shapes and sexy lines.

it will look badass, just like the 2nd gen.

thus why i said, it really doesnt matter if some one has done it.

Okay so apparently for $150 bucks I can get 2x mori ballasts, 2x mori bulbs, 2x projectors, along with harness and hardware?!?!?!? Yeah this will be my next project if I can pick up some heads for cheap.

Oh no I had been to the site many of times before being sucked into Acurazine. I just never pondered the idea of retrofitting jectors in my car until I started to dig through the TL section.

I retrofitted my 92 accord with the H1 mini's fromTRS. Wasn't to hard with the minis it's mostly plug and play! But for the bigger projectors you will have to cut your headlight to get them to fit! I have thought about doing the D2S minis and the H1 matchbox for the driving lights. Overall the cutoff is awesome they were very bright! Well worth the money IMO!
