search for Gen 4 projectors, you should find all the info you need. You can search this thread too. I've posted some info including cutoff shots somewhere in here.

Alright thanks, I'm think I might buy these. I've read reviews for their other headlights for different cars and they have all been good so far.

I've heard of a few cases of stress cracks. I think these days most people just run hids from the start in them, it helps. Also all projectors have hot spots. Even the retros. Hot spots aren't a bad thing. Some are just larger than others. The gen 4s have a bright hot spot right in the middle of the light, which is where you want it to be so that it lights up the center of the road.

i would haha, i put them in about a week ago. put hids in as well. they are a real pain to get in the brackets right but so are the stock ones. you will have to aim them though, mine seem to point right at the ground and havent attempted to aim them yet because its been raining non stop and i havent had time.
