Gotcha. 
I look forward to it!
Update on my car:
I picked up a rear Mason Bar- my car's a coupe with folding rear seats, so I benefit more than fixed back seats would. This'll go in when I get my new RSM's. (rear shock mounts for the non-BMW crowd):
And an update on my TFX retrofit. I drilled my low beam lenses. They came out pretty good. Two lenses toasted my bit (but what do you expect for $13 shipped from Hong Kong?)
I cleaned the lights/housings/lenses really well. Any imperfections you see are in the stone guard that's been on them since day one. In put the hi/lo lenses back into the front housings. They look pretty good. Included are pics of the drilling process, as well as the jig I used:
The diamond carbide bit:
Put some water in the lens to keep it cool, and keep the glass dust down:
Stop half way through, clean out water/glass dust, put in some new water:
Newly cut low beam lens:
The center that I drilled out:
The low beams (drilled) next to the high beams, all cleaned up:
The cleaned lenses installed in front lens housing after everything was cleaned meticulously:
The housings before I washed them:
After- I'll have better pics of these when I'm done, but trust me, they're clean!
That's it for now!
