anyone have 3rd gen projectors?
if so post pics
and stories/experiences lol
i like 3rd gen myself, but with the ammount of problems with 1st and 2nd im iffy on buying any projectors

 

ya i wanted to get projectors real bad, but now i think i'm going to just paint my OEM's and buy HID's

 

I had a set of gen 2s and so did my buddy, they halos and eyebrows burnt out within a hour after installing....JUNK, just my 2 cents though

 

like i seriously think that like 1 or 2 out of 10 people actually haven't had problems with theirs so the odds are against you lol.

 

I have a set for sale

 

 

I have 3rd gens, Ive has them for about 3 months and have had no problems at all. Although I've heard the heat from the halogen lights crack the lens so I put the stock lights in for the winter and until I get an HID kit for the projectors.

 

thats exactly what mine is doing

 

so if you get projectors and HID's the projectors should be fine?

 

yup shldnt have a problem

 

You should be. HID bulbs run cooler then halogen lights. So they shouldn't cause the lens to crack.

 

ok well than that's better. HIDS aren't too expensive either are they?

 

you can buy the ebay plug n plays for around $60. other kits range from $100-$300 from what i've seen

 

whats the difference? like why is there such a jump in price? i've seen the ones for like 60 bucks

 

just remember, you get what u payfor

i would buy the ones from 3bspec which is a vendor on here

kits are 130

 

features like bixenon bulbs, which are basically 2 bulbs in one, other than that i have no idea for the extra cost. my friend has had the ebay kit for a few months now and still working. i actually ordered a set myself for my 1st gen projos. i still havent had any problem with them

 

very nice. ya i think that'll be a next year mod for me possibly. i'll still have to do some more looking into it. but i'm pretty sure everyone i've talked to that hasn't had problems had HID's wit their projos.

 

which ones are 1st gen, 2nd gen, 3rd gen...can i get someone to match some pics so we know what we're looking for plz


EDIT: searching>me

 

i think ill just clear corner my OEM's and get the hid kit, i dont want to take a 200$ coin flip on projectors

I've had these for months, no issues, and eBay HIDs in the lowbeams and fogs with no issues either.

 

so you can buy projectors and but hid kits on them? what exactly is hid?

 

Yes you can buy projectors with or without HID units, if you get the ones with regular bulbs you can add an HID kit later.

Here's a couple of threads to help you out:
