Got my adapter plates as a test subject for Nick on GMFS (Ri22o) to fit Bi-xenon: Morimoto Mini H1 4.1 - HID Projectors from The Retrofit Source Inc .
So These adapters allow you to swap denali halogen suck projectors for HID projectors.
On to the results.

Morimoto vs. Denali

Morimoto 4.3K on the passengers' side Denali 6k on Drivers' side

Denali on left, Morimoto on right. The cutoff line with the morimoto's is significantly more defined, as well as the light pattern being fuller.

Yeah, using the adapter all I needed was silcone and 8 - #8 machine bolts/nuts. Took about 30 minutes.
 
Everything lined up with the adapters, they bolt to the projector, then bolt adapter to OEM housing. Still utilize OEM adjustment tool
 
Awesome mod if you like the look of denali's...still on the fence about them. Way better output and cutoff it looks like, in for night time pics.
 
Its a great mod I have had my mormito on my denalis for a while now and there is a huge difference. I have 5k on mine

Is Ri22o selling the adapters yet? I haven't kept up with his thread lately

The really big improvement with this upgrade is in the cutoff of the projector in low beams, and the high beams light output being a bi-xenon. Worth the 175 for bulbs/projectors/adapters. Ballasts needed too
 
How did you wire up the cutoff plate? Just straight to the highbeam wire?

Remember the pdf I sent you, the wire would go through the bottom in my plate version
