    Other way around.

    Newer technology to old. Since HID bi-xenon projectors are newer it's labeled a retrofit.

    Ever heard someone talking about a classic or older car, "The A/C was retrofitted with 134a"

    Meaning it was R12 and now the newer 134a.

    But I see what you did there, you took the root word "retro" meaning older style and "fit" meaning adapted and combined them resulting in "old style adapted" which implies new adapted to old. Make sense? Probably not!

    Ah yes! The english language, unlike the metric system, it doesn't make sense.

    ^^^They try.


    I had to search why "colonel" is pronounced "kernel"

    In spanish and italian it has an R, english languge made it dumb by switching the R for an L, but they wanted to keep the heritage of the pronunciation with an R.

    Funny looking back on the previous page you guys mentioned replacing the rad. Well I joined the club yesterday, cause mine cracked so I got a shop to replace it. So thats my latest purchase lol.

    Demond I'm still contemplating which one I want to go with. Haven't found a mishimoto for a decent price. Any suggestions? Any links ?

    If you're auto idk because of the trans cooler...but for manual the 3G eclipse ones fit and you just modify the bottom mounts a little...all my info is old because it's a pain in the dick to find anything...but idk if they have made any better fitting ones. There was discussion about using an evo one but idr what happened with it...

    eBay wants $255 for them. Could probably find used somewhere idk...decided I didn't need it and dropped the search. Deleted my links too, sorry bro
