You're welcome... but those were the original projectors. I'll be doing the same thing with the new projectors. I have a few other slick customizations up my sleeve as well.

i am done ranting for the moment
Did u really spend ur money to help the "community"? Im sorry but thats bull****. Im a college student and i dont have money to throw around. I can barely afford my car payments. I wish i was one of them spoiled kids who have the money to waste.

Now you're coming off as insulting. Sure, you might be a college student... but that doesn't mean that everyone else that has the money to do that kind of stuff is spoiled. I'm a young professional 2 years out of college... I'm not a spoiled kid. I've worked hard to get where I am and I'm happy to spend a little more money if I need to step up and try something new that might help out the community.

Can these bulbs be replaced with HID? I noticed DoubleLP said he was having issues with fitting of the HID bulbs.

HID's are IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It took a little work with the rubber cover on the back of the lights and I was able to make them fit with any modifications needed.

Here are the pics with the HID's in, and a picture of what the cutoff looks like and the light output:




I do not have any pics of driving down the road as it is daytime here and well, you can't see the lights during the day.

those projectors are by far the best i've seen yet.
definitely considering getting a pair of these.

do you think you could possibly write up a how to on your fitting of your HIDs?

have you had the old projectors? The reason it is higher on the right is so that the light can actually hit street signs without blinding those in the other lane....correct me if im wrong...

I was jus bout to say that. Did u aim em? The cutoff is supposed to be a z.

For the halos, jus go leave em on longer.

And why is there purple right above the cutoff?

the blues/purples are caused from the rounded-ness of the projector, its the way the light is bent around the lens. When you see BMW's and cars of that nature, sometimes their lights look blue...that's because you are seeing the blue/purple part of their cutoff line.
