My Xenon Projector project...need suggestions

[Jet Black]

Well as of Tuesday I'll be ordering this kit (2nd Kit down ~ Valeo Projectors):
http://www.hidplanet.com/package.html

Ill also be using this tut:
http://home.comcast.net/~c.tangonan/galant...r_Tutorial.html

Basicly I going to be cutting out the back of the headlight housing and sticking a straight peice of plexiglass back there with ONE projector in the middle (in the tut, he has the plexiglass 'stepped' and he uses 2 projectors).
Its going to look like this:

Also I will be cutting a larger hole into the chrome inner housing so I can stick the projector through it. The part of the chrome housing where the headlight is, will be painted black (ill keep the turn signal portion of it chrome).

So any suggestions or useful links? What would be really useful is pictures of the chrome housing by itself (outside the whole headlight housing).

Thanks.

edit: The kit says it comes with a harness but is it the type that plugs directly into the battery? I hear that, thats the best kind to get?

Ya but I dont mind for the time being. Though my plan is to get the JDM headlights, and stick the projectors in there, along with the halogen high beams.

Ya I think Im going to make a tutorial for this. Honestly Im just nervous that the beam pattern will be majory fucked up or something. Other than that, this project is really pretty straight foward.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(tutorial)</div><div class='quotemain'>Step two: you need to take your headlights apart. If your headlights are like 90% of the newer ones out there, you can just bake them in the oven to get them apart. This will loosen the glue between the front clear lens and the rear of the housing. Personally, I would heat the oven to 260 degrees, and put 1 headlight on the middle rack at a time. Leave it in there for no more than 7 minutes. You don’t want to leave it too close to the heat source, that is, unless you want your headlights to melt. </div> Is there any another way to do this or is this the best way to do it :?:
