Default HID retrofit question

i bought some infiniti fx35 bi-xenon projectors off ebay because i want to use the projectors, not the crappy h4 housings that i have right now. here's a link to the set that i got.

anyways, since the projectors come with the high/low beam shutter, do i just need the standard hid kit, or do i still need the bi-xenon kit? my idea is to wire up the shutter to the high beam wire. would that work? or should i just remove the shutter and just use it as an hid projector?

question for modexpress: can you build a custom kit? i would like a kit that can use the d2s/d2c bulb with the H4 power harness. i could peice the kit together with a d2s harness modified for aftermarket hid kits, but this would be easier.

We can do mix kits for you and you can do the wiring yourself, we usually dont do custom kits anymore. You should just remove the shutter and use the xenon projector.

if i did that, would it lose the ability to be a bi-xenon system?

I think it would just use a d2s bulb and the shutter would open when it is supposed to. It might be possible to use the highbeam as the wire that tells the shutter to open but you would have to splice the wires together for a test to see if it does that. I only have tsx retrofits, so i'm not sure what the ones with the shutter look like and whether they will even fit our cars.

i'm towards the end of my install with everything tested. i've got the shutters working off my fog lights. i don't ever use my fog lights, so it all works out. this sunday comes the install. i need to make brackets and cut out some metal from the headlight assembly.
