Zam's Bixenon Magic

Count me as another completely satisfied customer of Zam (real name Huy).
He just retrofitted the Audi RS6 bixenon projectors into a set of Depo headlights for me and the resulting light output is absolutely stunning. I turned on the high beams last night and went around to the front of the car to check it out - it was like staring into the sun. For anyone considering the HID upgrade from Zam, I highly recommend that you go for the bixenon setup - you won't regret it. Also, kudos to Zam's integrity and persistence in fixing the problems caused by Fed Ex shipping errors. Thanks again Zam - you're a class act.

My set might be available for sale as I wish to purchase another set from Zam.

iNTx: it's not possible at all to get a RHD RS6 in the US. I have couple people asked, but could never find one. When we did yours back then, since it was single xenon, I could fabricated a RHD shield onto LHD projector. It's very hard (if not impossible) to fabricate a shield for bi-xenon projector

I might have to look for a RHD RS 6 bixenon projector in Asia and might bring it over for you to fabricate. That may take a while
