I have finally finished my retrofits, aside from converting the turn signals to LED. I have been posting on facebook about it, but figured it'd be a good thread to have going on here as well. Overall, the cost of the project is pretty steep, but I believe in doing it right once and never have to do it again. I figure about $250 to retrofit the headlights, excluding time, only parts. Headlights: - TheRetrofitSource.com Morimoto Mini H1 projectors w/ Gatling Gun shrouds - eBay H6054 "Pilot" brand clear housings -- After much research, I found these to be the best for plastic lenses (I didn't want glass) with 95% optically clarity to ensure no distortion on the cutoff - DDM Tuning 55W HID's -- I bought the H4 Bixenon kit, and also a H1 set of bulbs from them. Since you need the H4's Bixenon relay harness to power the cutoff solenoid (You won't use the H4 bulbs) but you need the H1 bulbs to use with the projectors. - Butyl Sealant to reseal them It took roughly 4 hours a side to retrofit, taking my time. Definitely NOT the easiest, but certainly not the hardest retrofit I've completed. Main issue was having to cut the back of the housing apart to fit the projector deep enough to clear the lens. http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w119/logikfive/1988%20Chrysler%20Conquest%20Black/56EAC924-BF80-4446-873D-4D2451206541_zpsze17jl9o.jpg http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w119/logikfive/1988%20Chrysler%20Conquest%20Black/37D6F7D5-C6B7-461D-8389-58D8C0C34DBF_zpscryvzisw.jpg http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w119/logikfive/1988%20Chrysler%20Conquest%20Black/B0937DBC-B1DC-455C-B132-134FA3833250_zpscqtkocow.jpg Fog lights: - TheRetrofitSource.com Matchbox H1 Projectors - DDMTuning 35W H1 HID kit with relay harness - JustPaus Clear Lenses Overall, the fog lights were relatively easy to retrofit. It took me about 1.5 hours a side, for the actual fitment work. I took extra time to clean, paint and other things, but the retrofit itself was quick. I figure I have $300 into these in parts. http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w119/logikfive/1988%20Chrysler%20Conquest%20Black/84C06924-6AE9-44C6-857D-40EB35C0486B_zpsvovh8jah.jpg http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w119/logikfive/1988%20Chrysler%20Conquest%20Black/1DE39832-9F63-44D2-9FD4-A9E0468FC36B_zpsqsk0xs6p.jpg http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w119/logikfive/1988%20Chrysler%20Conquest%20Black/58241ECD-894E-4950-8F60-FAEB4285947E_zpsfzpfq7pc.jpg I will most likely be pulling the headlights and blacking out the shrouds on those as well, so they aren't so visible. I like the blacked out look. Joe
