projectors if equipped with HIDs are much brighter than stockers. if there are only halogen bulbs in the projectors they are about equal or dimmer than stock. which generation headlights are u thinking of getting? i have gen 1 and love them. the new gen 4's are pretty sick too.

After my wonderful () experience with aftermarket projector headlights, I'm voting either replacement stocks, or new stock headlights with a retrofit projector in them. You know... I've got a set of headlights here, I wonder if I can cram a Morimoto in there O_o

We sell the projectors (Gen 1 and 3) with LED swaps and pre-installed HID kits.

Yes. If you buy a HID Kit for the projectors then it should be brighter than stock. And CCFL Halos are BADASS! I have them on my car.
