I used a small microfibre towel to protect the projector bowl as I was making the reductions using a Dremel with a cutting disc.

As you can see, I also took this opportunity to make a foreground limiter that will also allow the top clip to clamp on the projector and secure it in place.

Be very careful doing this. Do not start cutting until you are absolutely sure your outline is correct and centered.

Gently pry it off. Requires very little strength.

You want to keep this thing around because it will help you determine how much you need to cut from the Morimoto projector.

Remove this clip. It's the only thing holding the projector in place after removing the two bottom screws.

This would be a good time to fit the headlight assembly as is (without the glass lens) and find some place dark to aim the projector and play with its orientation on the reflector.

Snap the reflector-projector assembly in place, and then fasten the Phillip's head screws that hold the reflector in place.

You may line up this tab (bottom one with the screw hole) with that empty space in the heat sink. This does not necessarily mean the projector will be correctly aligned.

Righty tighty gets the projector shaft all the way out. By not wearing down on the reflector portion of the hole, it itself is screwed onto the projector.

Supposedly the bottom side of the projector is the flat end, however, I found out that this doesn't mean it will be correctly aimed.

You don't need to grind down too much material. Just a little bit so that the threaded shaft can fit snugly on the plastic bulb holder.

Use a Dremel with a carbide bur to increase the diameter of the reflector's bulb holder hole. DO NOT grind the reflector part of the bulb holder hole.

I find it's best to either pull on the left or right side of the reflector first. Trying to pull both at the same time is a wasted effort.

Bottom screw. A magnetic screwdriver will make your life much easier on reassembly. You could also used tape or some super glue to hold the screw driver in place.
