Credit where credit's due, I followed this excellent write-up:

The difference in light output is staggering. Also, I think they look amazing. I installed new euro lenses, clear corners, chrome turn signal bulbs, and DEPO projector foglights running Morimoto 55w fogs at the same time.

Anyway, on with the pics!

Where did you source your clear corner lenses? Viva said they were no longer available.

I'll be tearing into mine soon for lens replacement at minimum so would depend on availability at the time but I may be interested.

What about the fogs... finding conflicting info on them. Did you buy DEPO's and just a retrofit HID kit or?

Fogs and HIDs... turning your foglights into driving lights? Why not just install projector HID driving lights?

I don't really want to mess with the factory headlights outside of new glass and perhaps clear corners. Just my preference.

Interesting you say H3 (and others have said the same) because this kit is listed as compatible with the R in H1 but not H3. Go figure... https://www.amazon.com/Xenon-Headli.../B00802FHRQ?tag=vs-swedespeed-convert-20&th=1

I've read these threads and didn't find it too difficult...

I've been thinking about the DEPO's for the same reason - 10 years of sandblasting has done mine in. I do plan on putting some film on the new set.

What retrofit kit did you go with for the fogs?

I was interested in the latter. Just looking at options for the HID kit itself. Thanks.
