Which cars are popular with HID-retrofits?

Hello gearheads,

I'm trying to figure out whether or not to sell OEM-retrofit components (such as TSX projectors, shrouds, ect ect), and I'm trying to crunch the numbers to see whether or not its worth the hassle.

Anyways, if you have a moment to squeeze your brain for any models/brands that are easy to retrofit, and thus, have a large backing and need for retrofitting parts.

Is there a large group of Civic owners that retrofit their headlights?

Thanks for the help!

Best regards,
-G

I recently did mine and someone else on here did too. He actually made a decent DIY. Trust me dude once you go retrofit you won't wanna go back to halogen...I'm sure ahmed would agree

Did you have troubles sourcing shrouds, and the projectors itself?

Feel free to throw some pictures up.

94-01 Integras were the first cars to be retrofitted from my Knowledge, someone can try and disprove that but it's going to be hard lol.

I have done 3 retro's on my own Integra's and had to source parts from the states, PITA. If you can get S2K projectors, I would be interested in re-retroing my current setup.

I'll let you know. PM me in a week in case I forget.

Would anyone be interested in a group buy?
