TYC Projectors

[bigolayne]

They came in on Saturday and I ordered my adapters from Retroshop and JJ. Let me start off with JJ is a stand up guy and cares about customer service.
I ordered the adapters and morimoto hid bulbs from JJ on the 29th an 30th of December. The delivery was to be on the 2nd of January as he did 2 day shipping. Well, needless to say the USPS has seemed to have lost the package.
I told JJ about this and he more than stepped up by sending out another package, NEXT DAY. His help in the whole process and the fact that he actually cared and was accessible has more than earned my trust, confidence but also my future business. Thanks again JJ.

Will post pictures of the install with the hid's when I finish up...

Nice. Enjoy your projectors. JJ is awesome. Helped me out when I did my projector retrofit

Interesting in seeing the final product once installed

All wired and ready for the install tomorrow as long as I'm feeling up to it. Have the double resistors for my new turn signals and already have my relay harness installed with my ballast. Just an easy take out the Spyders and install the TYC's.

The TYC's were $480 including shipping, the professionally made adapters from JJ at Retroshops were $135 and that was with the double resistors to make it error free. Can't express enough the appreciation for JJ...

And as Hemi450hp has given the link I would encourage to purchase from Retroshops. I was lucky to get that deal but JJ sells them. If I hadn't found those I would have surely purchased from him.
I have just recently come to truly understand and appreciate the small business owner and will give them my support from now on. You never know what your getting when your doing all the searching to get a cheaper price. When you add up all the time you wasted trying to get the so called best deal you should have just bought it at a fair price and know who and where your getting it from.
I owe Hemi450hp an apology for coming off the wrong way to him when all he has done has tried to help all the folks on the forum. Good, no, great job from two quality guys and vendors...

Got them installed and still had issues. I tell you these 2015's will make you jump off a bridge. Installed everything and notice the led on the driver side is significantly lower in brightness, swapped resistors and worked for most of the day and then I get the light out message.
The hid portion was the easy part but trying to figure out what was going on was crazy. First it let me know that the drivers side was out and then the passenger side did it. I finally undid everything and did it all again and this time I added a capacitor and resistors and no error message.
I will keep you up to date on this...

Didn't you just put spyders in the other week?!

What was wrong with those?

Well, good luck figuring it out man.

I'm in the process of doing the same thing you did.

Been running HID's from Retroshop in my quad housing for the past year but just ordered the projector adapter and proper bulbs to swap over to the TYC projectors.

I upgraded to projectors and switchback leds. I have a total of 3 resistors for each side in a 2015.

Lol, yes I did about a month ago or so. You will come to find out that I try many products in my quest to perfection! In other words, I'm retired now and have time on my hands.
Also, I'm going to be taking apart the Spyders and doing a retro job on them. Still figuring which way I want to do this. Going to get rid of the 7 looking led's and changing out the projectors to doubles (low and high). Basically I'm designing one...

The difference in the projectors is noticeable from the Spyders to these. The problem I had was only with the led's, the lights where no problem. I'm telling you, it's like each one of the 15's was made to different specs and not on an assembly line...
