    Bi xenon install. Possibly squared kit.

    Hi R3v,

    I am in a bit different situation than most of the write ups on the forum, but I figured you would be a good group to ask. I am trying to fit Jaguar XK/XF bi-xenon HIDs (I received the entire setup with ballast/bulb/igniter for free) into e32/e34 ellipsoids (once again free) which I am then putting into my e21 buckets. I am wondering if squared adapters fit into e32 housings or if they are close to fitting? If they do not work do you have ideas or places to point me in the right direction? One other thing I am having a tough time figuring out is how to seal up the backside of the housing since the jaguar reflector is open, unlike the morimoto reflector which is closed.

    Thanks again for any advice,
    Kevin

    Even if the Squared adapters fit the e32 buckets, they are probably not the correct size for the Jag bi-xenon projector. J.T. makes them specifically sized for the Morimoto Mini H1 projector. These projectors look too big to fit in the Squared adapter, also the bolt pattern is opposite of the Morimoto (skinny on bottom, wide on top).

      Hmmm. Thanks for the input.

      I wonder how I could make my own adapter plate, and then seal up the open rear reflector.
