{"product_id":"morimoto-s160","title":"Morimoto E46-R Extended Projector Shroud","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe E46-R Extended projector S160 shrouds are a heightened iteration of the original E46-R, tailored for enthusiasts seeking enhanced customization for their retrofitted headlights. Inspired by the BMW E46, these shrouds boast a 10mm increase in overall height and feature dimples arranged in a full circle around their face. Crafted from premium quality plastic with durable metalized chrome finishes, they offer superior resilience compared to cheaper alternatives. Mounting is facilitated by optional Centric Rings, while JB Quik Weld ensures long-term stability by preventing vibration-induced loosening. Additionally, compatibility with LED Halos further expands customization options, with Profile Pivot and Profile Pixel systems providing reliable and visually striking enhancements. For seamless integration, trimming is a straightforward task thanks to their plastic construction, with recommended tools like the Dremel hand tool simplifying the process.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eE46-R Extended:\u003c\/b\u003e An extended version of the original E46-R shroud, for those who believe that size does matter. Inspired by the BMW E46, enhanced for retrofitters. Compared to the standard E46-R, The \"Extended\" version is 10mm taller in overall height and has the dimples arrayed around it's face in a full circle.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIn Comparison: \u003c\/b\u003e Don't make the mistake of thinking all shrouds are created equal. Even though less expensive alternatives may be available elsewhere: Morimoto shrouds are made from the highest quality plastic and have by far the most durable metalized chrome finishes. The cheap-o's out there are flimsy enough to deform from the heat just a 35W HID bulb, and their chrome finish easily flakes off.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eA or B: \u003c\/b\u003e At The Retrofit Source, we're also meticulous with quality control. If a shroud has a min Or factory defect; we sell it at a discount as a \"B stock\" unit - which is perfect for budget retrofits or when painting them is part of the plans. If you won't settle for anything less than perfect and plan to leave them chrome; go for the \"A Stock\" Shrouds.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMounting: \u003c\/b\u003e Centric Rings are not included by default, but are highly recommended to improve ease of installation on many projectors. The Centric Rings are simple reducers that clip into the shroud to reduce the inside diameter, making them more of a \"press fit\" onto the lens holder of the projector. JB Quik Weld is also recommended in order to prevent the shrouds from vibrating loose over time.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLED Halos: \u003c\/b\u003e Are a unique and effective way to further customize the look of your projector retrofit. The Profile Pivot (switchback) and Profile Pixel (RGB) systems are easy to mount on the front of your shrouds, are reliable, and of course awesome looking.

Whether required to clear part of the projector, or fit within the geometry of your headlight housing; it's normal. Luckily, they're made of plastic - making that easily possible. We recommend a Dremel hand tool with EZ Lock cutting wheels to make the job easy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Morimoto","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49534589206832,"sku":"S160","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0417\/5508\/2918\/files\/26830.E46R_Extended.010.jpg?v=1794415999","url":"https:\/\/trucksrus.shop\/products\/morimoto-s160","provider":"Trucks R Us","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
