Mark,

PM me the parts you'll be using for the retrofit.

Ok, I know this will consequently end in me getting called a noob...again, but what exactly is a retrofit? As far as I can see, Zorro's car is already as nice as it could get without the other parts of the Gen II. Or maybe it is getting original AMG parts... Please clue me in

the retrofit is the installation of projectors in the stock headlight housing.

Those projector headlights for the W124, are those the actual Xenon type lights that most new cars have today? That look really white and nice? .

Wrong...it means modifying A housing...I am not gonna use stock fluted glass, that would defeat the purpose of the project...

Stay tuned...
