But anyway here are some pics.

I think it's time to market the forum... either that or find ways to get more of the older people back into an Alero.
I notice now that manwhore got rid of his Alero, it got dead. 
As far as the pics, it seems one side is brighter than the other in the pics. Is it like that in real life?

Manwhore still has it. For now.
Aside from pics no. Not really. The projectors are way off right now. I think its just the pic. But ill look at that more after they are aligned to see if one is brighter. If so. Idk what would cause that
And thanks parker!

Dont refer to the tape btw.
Lights are mounted with quik steel atm and aimed where I want them! Cure time for the quick steel is 1 hour. So waiting for that then I will pull lights out and epoxy/jbweld them to assure they are steady.
Left to do.
- jbweld projectors.
- clean up assembly lens and headlight it self.
- seal back of headlights since I had to cut back there. :/
- seal pilot holes in back (easy)
- wire up high beam
- put headlights together
- figure out how to cut the shroud to work, if I can even use it.....
Some pics

You can't get a single line to form? It still seems low on the driver's side

There is a total of basically 4 lines. The humps and the lines have to be level with eachother. And thats how theu are you just cant tell by the pic.
Heres a google image. See how the bottom cutoffs line with the top cut offs?

I see that. I was hoping you could get rid of that. I've seen that on a lot of pics, and I personally don't like that cutoff. I like the TSX's projector cutoff better.

Whats the difference they pretty much look the same? All prjectors pretty much produce the same cutoff. Just some are more precise then others.

The cutoff line is less sharp. That has always been my gripe with the Morimotos.. the cutoff line.

The retro looks to have turned out really well, Nate.
The aim needs a bit of fine tuning is all.
For reference, here's the cutoff on my Morimoto H1 projectors.
Major difference is my 2.5" lenses compared to sleepy's 3" lenses. Because my projectors are more compact, I was able to use an E46 shroud.

Thanks matt. The aim looks a tad slanted in pic for some reason but in person is straight as an arrow pretty much.
Only down side to my retro is I may not be able to do a shroud with them being so big.

Last night, wired high beams up. Cleaned headlight lenses, threw some epoxy/jb weld to better secure the projector. Will be adding more jbweld on the back soon to assure durability.

Headlights are pretty much done! Thanks kinky.
Basically all thats left is put lenses on and seal up that back since I had to cut. Still trying to think what do to for that. But pics will comr later.
Hate to say though. I was not able to use a shroud with these projectors. Which doesnt bother me to much. I pretty much figured that with the projector I chose. But these are really nice so thats why I wanted them.
