looks good....but, and this isnt a bash...is the alignment on the house off on both lights? looks like it doesnt fit flush

They are a pain in the ass to get in. They do need to be aligned better.

overall tho,

Nice job, sounds like you had fun.
What cars' projectors did you use?

I like it. At night looks a little funky but the daylight shots look very clean. Good choice.

The 6K HID bulbs I have are whiter against a wall...but are blue like that when warming up. Weird.

I bought the housings off ebay, they already come with projectors mounted in so all the hard work was done for me. I am not sure what type of projector they are. The come with a halogen H1 bulb tho so I just had to buy a HID conversion kit and hook everything up.

Thanks for all the kind words guys.

I just went out and tried to get them in a bit better. They look a little better but not perfect yet. I may just have to deal with the small unalignment.

dont hook up those ricey LEDs

 

[01Cobra]

dont hook up those ricey LEDs

That is what makes them look funky. I agree.

imho they all look like shit... except one guy who made his own... no bullshit... just 1 projector, and 1 turn signal bulb

Cost him over $600 to do.. i told him id pay anything for him to do it again for me.. but he said its just too much work.

I didnt plan on hooking up the leds and halos but I didnt want to just have a bunch of wires sitting there and I didnt want to cut them incase I ever want to sell the lights. I agree I am not crazy about the headlights but I think they are the best looking out of the 3 to choose from right now. I would have done a retro fit if I had the time/tools. Thanks for the opinions though guys!

i have those! exact same car with hids aswell. im also doing a retrofit. the guy who did his was stupid and spent 600. i got projectors from an infiniti for 75 bucks for both. i just need to retrofit them


and yes these suck horribly for alignment. i still have to fix mine.

 

[syP]

but in the end his will still look better than yours.

 

[Lord Tin Foilhat]

Ehh look alright....I've never been a fan of the really blue HIDs. I like the 6000k's better. Plus halo headlights only look good on BMW.

reminds me of a scion tC now

 

[ChrisRac]

I love the angeleye look

Well guys I ended up taking these lights out after only 3 days and selling them. They didnt fit well on my car no matter what I did, and they were the BIGGEST pain in the ass to aim. I spent hours upon hours trying to aim them and still couldnt get them that good. I took a huge loss on them but oh well it happens.

My hids were 6k btw.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

good, they looked kinda ricey....

 

[Angus]

My hids were 6k btw.

Mine are too and they are way more blue-ish than I wanted...

and the other day I was on 64 and behind me was a black ss/sc with those exact same lights. They too were not aim very well at all....
