    Projector Headlights - What's Garbage and What's Not?

    Hey, I'm looking into getting projector headlights and I'm wondering what is garbage and what isn't. I know that Ebay projectors are garbage for the most part, so I'm not looking on Ebay. The ones I'm looking at are

    I'm just wondering if you guys think these are any good or not. I would get PIAA H4 lights to go with these. I appreciate any input.

    Thanks

    The ones you posted = complete garbage.

    The ones with a projector as the low beam, and regular high beam reflector = not so bad.

      so how about these ones then?

      I want to find something good, and I've been looking hard but it isn't easy finding something good. I would prefer if the headlights were one pieces.

        the only way is to take out the projectors in those and put in some quality projectors.
        What makes me laugh about forums, is that no matter how much you try to help someone, they dont take the advice. Go ahead and do it the hard way.

        You got to respect what you drive, and appreciate what you have, making the best of what you got. and if that means putting CAI, HID's, a phat stereo system, and a idiot in the drivers seat...then so be it!

            I have these. They can actually be found on ebay for alot cheaper. I took out the h4 projector and replaced it with a 9006 projector from a Hyundai Tiburon. I also painted the hi beam reflector with some yellow stained glass paint and turned it into a fog light. I converted the middle projector into a demon eye by painting it red. It looks hott. Oh yeah, I also added dual angel eyes. So basically, even though I got the "cheap ebay ones" they are one of a kind and I like them.

              Just avoid any headlight completely that uses an h3 bulb as a lowbeam bulb.

                  First of all, I don't mean to thread jack. If you would prefer I open a new thread I'd be glad to.


                  Secondly, With the posted headlight above, the projectors look like they are only with the low beams, no high beams? Do these take the standard 9005 and 9006 bulb or do they have their own special bulb that accepts the stock electrical plug?

                    I don't mean to threadjack either, but what about a DIY projector retrofit in your stock assemblies? they look even sweeter...

                    life is good.

                          retrofit is the best looking with high quality projectors., just requires some work.
