[QUOTE="Huachipato, post: 16144475, member: 22395"] Nice work there. I used the same headlights with my build since this brand in particular has 2 adjustment screws vs. just the one on stock and most aftermarket headlights. For clocking the light, I have the projectors mounted tight enough to hold itself in place, but not too tight. I can get channel locks and slightly rotate the projector as needed after it is installed on the car. Another trick is to mount the headlights on the car before you bake the lens back on it. You can just grab the shroud (with latex gloved hand) and alter it as needed. I've never done it that way but it would allow you to tighten it down good and keep it aligned all at the same time. I'm sure you will find that if you buy your own kit from TRS, the wiring options comes with it. But, if you wanted to get a plug in play you could use something like this too: [MEDIA=amazon]B01N4VDR4Q[/MEDIA] I think the only difference between your method and mine is after I drill out a hole in the reflector to pass the wiring through and then seal it up with JB Weld. I thought my videos were a bit too long and detailed for the most part - assuming you stumbled across mine (and if so - hopefully it was helpful). Also have instructions that I think mostly mirror what you said in your post (instructions link in sig). FYI - I put the instructions there cause at the time image hosting sites were causing all kinds of headaches for threads created on forums. I figured if I placed it on a blog it would at least always be available for others to benefit from. [/QUOTE]
