They're 3" Hella OEM LHD from a US Audi circa 00-04 fitted to an SV-S. AFAIK these projectors were never made in RHD. A small part of the shield was removed and a piece of sheet steel cut for the correct beam pattern was soldered in place. The headlight housing was formed in carbon using a modified version of the original to make the mould. It was mainly time and patience.

There are easier ways to do this. There are projectors that are compact enough to squeeze into the original housing or work with a lightly modified housing.
An example can be found here:
