Well I decided I would start my build thread. I am still waiting for my kit to come in, but here is what I have so far.
Before getting started
Removed back reflector
A couple of shots of the original wiring
I can't remember or tell from this picture. Is the spot on the breadboard on the bottom left there not used?
Bulbs removed
Gutted as far as I need to go for this build
Nanotuners heatsink installed. Notice I replaced the stock fans with Evercool 50mm fans for better flow.
Plastic cover placed on to see fit.
This heatsink can be installed two ways. I installed mine the way the instructions on nanotuners.com have it with the wider part (from screw holes to edge) is in the back. You can see in that picture though that the plastic splashguard is super close to the heatsink and I think it may actually be touching. Will this potentially melt? Should I switch the heatsink around 180 degrees?
You can actually see this even better in the first heatsink picture without the splashguard that it is almost resting on the black plastic.
