DO NOT BUY THOSE!!

a) MOST aftermarket projectors suck ass!

b) horrible cut off lines

c) these ones don't even look attracting

I say you put some HIDs in your factory housings and your set.

You could even take your stock ones apart, paint the housings black, seal them back up, put HIDs in and you'll have a sick set-up.

Please don't buy projectors. I had projectors in my 08 silverado, they looked absolutely SICK with the halos and everything but quality was complete SHIT. I decided to put HIDs in my stock headlights with my new truck and I'm glad I did!

^ what he said

However, there was a nice write up on FSC I believe, or might've been here, about piecing together your own projector HID kit with some acura housings and things of that nature to make a real HID Projector light.

^^

that would be killer! or even Caddy projectors, BMW, Benz, Audi, Volvo, etc. This costs a lot though!

daylower · January 4, 2010

I dont remember fully, but I dont believe the cost was that much more then what you'll pay for a set of cheap projectors. The biggest thing was the whole DIY skill set that not everybody has.

Heres the right up I was talking about not for 900s(for a 91 Chevy to be exact) but gives you an idea of whats involved: FSC write up

This is a good place to start for anyone looking to do something like this: retrofit store

And also the HID Planet forums has some good info as well: HID Planet

Hope that helps.

Alright thanks for the reply's i figured they probably wouldnt be great.. but i dont think i'll end up putting the time into a retro-fit so i will probably just buy hid's thanks everyone
