the so called amg projectors are most likely e55 projectors. Output isn't that great. I retrofitted my girlfriends rsx with them and they are okay. the spread isn't too wide and intensity is focused. They also come with a fresnel lens so the cutoff isn't very sharp, but this can be replaced with an optically clear lens.

Also the e55 projectors are available in both bix and single xenon, but most on the market are bix.

Ok thanks. I'm gonna go and at least look at them since the shop is like 15 minnutes from me. I will post pics as soon as soon I go look at them.

fookoo303

once you post the pics I can verify if they are e55 or not.

phister, u were smart, I completely destroyed my depo headlight trying to install the FXR's, to all THEY DO NOT FIT INTO A DEPO HOUSING.........phister please keep me updated on the eagle eye housing, if the FXR's fits then I might just pick up a set and install the FXR's in the eagle eye's.......I am super upset I completely destoryed a barnd new headlight, now I am left with one right side depo headlight.......it sucks.............what a disastor..........

Phister please update your results if you were successful.........

how completely destroyed are we talking about?

Javvy

I cut the bottom of the frame to fit the soloneiod part of the projectors, then the bolts would not align up ...neither of them, tried to flex it a bit an dthe thing just collapsed and brokw apart..............

how many of the mounting points did you break? If you only broke one, it's still salvageable. To mount those you need to use metal mounting brackets from home depot shown below.

Javvy

thanks fookoo, i did not break the mounting points, I broke the frame on which the mounting points are located, since I cut the bottom part of the frame it was weak already, and when I tried to flex it a bit to squeeze the projectors in it just broke/collapsed. I know what u are suggesting, I could have used the kit above but the projectros mounting holes were too close and would not have allowed or given me enough room to get the brackets in....I know what you are saying " to use the bracket's to piggy back onto the mounting holes..."

any ways now will have to buy a cheap eagle eyes housing if phister would confirm the fitment..........

thankx
Javvy.....

dang that sucks man. Take some pics of the damage and maybe ill buy them from you for a good price. I've got some eagle eyes laying around waiting for a retrofit right now, but I like the depot look better.

phister

sorry the late reply javvy, I havent taken it apart yet, probably next week I'll have time since I'm doing summer courses right now. But from my research and talking to some others, the eagle eyes have quite a bit more room in the housing to fit the FX-R compared to the depos. I use to have images of the comparison between the two but my laptop crashed and had to reinstall windows Have you tried some epoxy to try and put the broken part back together?

Javvy

thankx phister & fookoo for your kind words and offer.....i was so pissed at myself i threw the broken depo in recycling and it is gone now........how stupid of me...darn..........

Sorry to hear about the mishap Jaavvy, but goodluck on the projects guys, the morimoto should fit directly on to the oem. One question though, will it eventually heat up and melt the top divider between the turn signal compartment and the main headlamp compartment since it looks like its sitting very close, if not sticking on it..
