I have been waiting to see it done to the 4G. I imagine the amber piece will be removed?

edit: I think you can pull off the quad projectors for the 4G.

I think that may be the issue. Sent you a PM about it and other stuff. Hoping to work on replacing the drivers side angel eye tomorrow so that will be a perfect time to implement your solution.

I tried to go onto HIDplanet website using the link in a previous post, but it is saying that the 85122+ bulb isn't currently avalible. If it isn't in by the time you get to my headlights, is it something I can install after the fact? I will also be sending a few cans of NBP paint to use.

^^ You can get them from ebay, search for " 85122+ new limited" it should return a few auctions, get the ones that are specified to be new rather than having a few hours on them.

JnC recommended me to the same place. Seems like a great price for the bulbs.
Great service too, I inquired about shipping to Canada---now it's a shipping option!~
Apparently he has 3 left in stock, from the listing I purchased from.

Convert them!~ I believe 9005 and 9006 have the same connectors... just the bulb is designed different.

Like I said, I believe these connectors are the same. In fact.. I'm 100% sure they are the same. If you get Type-S heads with quad projector---your fogs would be crazy.

If you don't want to get new heads, you can always do a retrofit for quad projectors into your existing o4-o6 heads.

Quad projector retro is possible, you just have to know which projector will fit in the headlight and on the TL

. I eventually plan on having a set for myself, just have to find a decently priced set of 07-08 base model headlights.
