Don't buy projectors. Worst mistake I ever made (3 sets) and could never get the light distribution right. You're better off going with black housing regular lights and get HIDs

I've had both, HID and halogen for both, I prefer regular housing. Just my personal preference.

im in my second hid kit/set, first one never died, but they were cheap ones, so it never gave full true output/color
now i have both morimoto ballast and they have been running good.
as for retros, i got it used. had to reseal them

So I'm better off to get a shop to make retrofits rather then buy whole new headlights?

You must be kidding, right? Did your ATS have projectors with HID bulbs? Once you go to retrofits - you will never be able to drive with halogens the same.
