[QUOTE="jordan572, post: 1061826, member: 10582"] Okay, the final assembly. Fitted the Rigids, aimmed a million times tightened and retighten multiple times and thread locked all screws, nuts and bolts. I pray that everything stays where its suppose to. I installed the projector and clocked it right to the marks that I put in the bowl when I aimed them in a relatives truck. The horizontal aim should be very close, Rigids were all in and the side reflector was back in. Put just a dot of super glue on the back side of that to hold it incase that thing wants to come unclipped. I also tightened down the projector body nut with a pair of pliers and jb welded the nut and body to the bowl in hopes that the projector never comes loose. Finally after cleaning and cleaning, dusting with keyboard duster then checking with a bright white led flashlight I got them as clean as I could. Screwed the headlamp surround to the lens and started on the wiring. [ATTACH=full]141211[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]141212[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]141213[/ATTACH] I have it wired so the factory high beam control will trigger on the rigids and lift the cutoff up in the projector. I also have it setup so the turn signals will flash the amber backlighting in the rigids. All with three wires, and a y Deutsch harness I made for the rigids. Took me a long time to figure out what I thought was the best way to wire these things up, Wire harness in progress, [ATTACH=full]141214[/ATTACH] Final product, [ATTACH=full]141215[/ATTACH] High beam projector trigger splitting off top left, rigid y splitter on the right and the small wire zip tied to the deutsch connector is the backlighting in the rigids for the flashers. I got some straight style d2s plugs for the projector bulb. Those orange 90 connectors are garbage to try to seal around so I cut, and soldered in the new ends. [ATTACH=full]141216[/ATTACH] These make sealing so clean and easy, I ran the three wire for the rigids and turn signals out of the running light socket. There wasn't enough clearance to run them out of the flasher socket. I had to dremel and drill out that little socket to run the three wires out. I really like how the backside turned out, although nobody will see it I'm not a fan of using aluminum tape and a bunch of silicone. [ATTACH=full]141217[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]141218[/ATTACH] That was about 10 hours of work, fitting, cleaning and wiring these things was unbelievable. And the complete lamp!, [ATTACH=full]141219[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]141220[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]141221[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]141222[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]141223[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]141224[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
