I pulled info for the build from emails, as I didn't remember. It took a while for this to happen, so I lost track of what I chose.
I let them choose the shroud, I think they may be the Apollo.
G5-R package:

Phillips Xtreme Vision Bulbs
Wire Harnesses, Hylux ballasts with D2S adapters, & Shrouds

Well, finally the headlights have been installed this past Sunday. I did not take pics of the install, as it was kinda of a pain. I'll take some pics after I aim them. Hoping to get the replacement fender-liners, and new splash guards in maybe this weekend. I also dropped off the rear air deflector at the body shop for a new coat of black paint, and clear-coat.

I know, it's a racket. After a failed attempt to do the conversion myself with the Morimoto LED projectors, I sent the Morimoto parts back, losing a percentage return fee, plus one destroyed new OE housing. After some unnecessary miscommunication from them I was bumped further in the wait list. During that wait time, I made an impulse buy on a new Travel Trailer of which I drove to Michigan to pick up, without my conversion headlights, so I bought one more OE housing and rigged the destroyed one so I could have headlights for my drive to MI. So you can add about $200.00 more to the headlight conversion project.
I only just got time to install them a week ago after receiving them the very end of December. I'll finally get to aim them in preparation for a road trip with the T/T this weekend to see how they are.

Sure sounds like a racket! One day I may get some lights along those lines, but for now I deal with the OE ones that are yellowed. Hopefully when I tear mine down for the Cummins swap I'll get some little odds and ends done like that.
I totally dig the inner fender liners! Well done! That update is for sure going on my list!

In my business customers are always taking things apart, can't get it right, then call me. Since I've been in the service field for 28 years I'm able to get it all fixed for them, in very short order, and adequately charge for my service.
I'm also fortunate that the X is not a daily driver and can stay in the garage. This helps me out a lot, and I can take my time on the things I do. I've had the headlight project on the burner for 2 years now.

Thanks. It turned out pretty well considering I used the tattered original one as a template. It could be better by my standards, but I really prefer the increased coverage. I'll take some pics in the daylight when I hook up to the travel trailer this Friday for the weekend trip.
