I hated the stock light output of the Denali headlights so I ordered the FX-R projectors from TRS. I optioned for the Morimoto 6k XB35 bulbs paired with 55watt ballasts. I used Apollo 3.0 shrouds for a clean OEM look. I used this tread for some input but I can say make multiple cuts to get as close as possible to the projector bowl shape. I used 2 sticks of JB Steel Stick and 2 sets of JB Kwik. The steel stick filled up most the gaps on stock bowl cut and held the projector pretty good. Then I used scotch bright to rough up the surface on the projector and stock bowl. I used JB kwik on the projector and only used foil tape where the bi-xenon wires come out. I mounted the ballasts near the horn on the passenger side and just inside the radiator bracket on the driver side. The light output is amazing and looks so much better than stock!

looks good. Wonder if you could do the same thing with projectors from some old acadia headlights?
