If you recall I cut off about a half inch section from one of the used housings allowing me to use the OEM Low beam cap in the high beam side of the housing but the glue just failed and I used JB Weld, it didn't hold... there was not enough surface area
This only came into play because I'm doing a quad setup

So I got the lights in and adjusted but I still need to seal them up.
I will say if I had to do it all over again I would not have done a quad set up ...
it was a total pain in the ass and honestly the difference in light output is minimal.. I think it was just something I wanted to do.

Hi Luke
Your seven months of hard work are acknowledged by those following your design process and those who have ordered brackets. I have the old style over and under lights on my 2001 Landcruiser, but OEM incandescent candles are dull as and I am contemplating a projector HID retrofit upgrade. I am unsure about upgrading to the side by side style.

Upgraded side by side- plastic
HEADLIGHTS LPTO20 TOYOTA LAND CRUISER FJ100 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002-2004 CHROME | eBay
This upgrade does not require the grill change and the panel work required if i utilise the later model OEM side by side style as per your Cruiser.
Will your bracket fit this style of headlight upgrade? Contemplated a quad set of H1 projectors but may take it in two bites. Get the first set working but then again it means twice baking the headlight to get things apart and back together.
best regards
Tony

The brackets are only needed for LX models when replacing the factory projector.

Adjustment Tip: before you seal up your lights you want to mount them on the truck and adjust them .. The tip is you can adjust them from the front by turning the adjustment screws with a vice grip
Wish I figured that out before today
I decided to go ahead and hook up the quad highbeams and I was so wrong. There's a huge difference switching on the highbeams
I also added yellow 3000k bulbs in the foglights and LED's in the backup light housing

Stay tune... looks like I'll be selling new OEM lights retrofitted with the Mini H1 and retrofitting services for anybody looking for a finish product or to have their lights retrofitted. I should have all the pricing set by sometime next week and all the work will be done by someone who's very experienced and part of our community

I want plug and play
Same here...
