I'm sure there is a thread about this but I can't seem to find it so I'll ask. Has anyone done a s2000 or TSX projector retrofit into the 97-99 headlights. If so How much did it cost you. I've found Light Werkz and they want $800 to do a complete s2000 retrofit and that doesn't include the ballasts or wiring. Also If anyone has picture of their setup could you post them please.

My search turned up many threads but no one (in my opinion) has done an OEM-quality retrofit of an 95-99 Eclipse OEM housing.

The best looking retrofits involve gutting the ebay aftermarket projectors and installing OEM projectors instead.

chrismitsu47,
You sent me a PM about this but you apparently have your preferences set to not receive PMs. It would not let me reply to you.

Anyway, I used Hella E55 bi-xenon projectors from ebay and the housings were the typical Ebay choice as shown below.

I would not recommend this as the easiest choice to retro. The deeper bezel around the lights makes it hard to fit the components inside the housing. Most people have used the ebay housing that has the bezel much further forward along with a TSX projector. You will see a few of those in the search I posted early in this thread.
