Re: OEM Retrofit Vs. Aftermarket Retrofit
OEM is usually better quality than aftermarket. Has more design and testing put into it.
some OEM projectors

Do it right the first time and just use OEM parts. Its easy (except fitting the projectors into your stock lights. can be difficult.) and gives the best results.

Re: OEM Retrofit Vs. Aftermarket Retrofit
idk what you mean by aftermarket retrofit.
if your mean which projectors you should use, then i'd suggest an oem item from a brand such as audi, or bmw.
or do you mean which headlight would be best for a retrofit? alot of peoplew ill say oem headlights because they like that stock look, but you can retrofit audi or bmw projectors into a pair of tyc or denji headlights and have a more modern look

Re: OEM Retrofit Vs. Aftermarket Retrofit
same here. I'll be soon buying the same setup from retro solutions. i think ill have a better shot with these then buying those plug-n-play kits with no projector.

Re: OEM Retrofit Vs. Aftermarket Retrofit
retro-soulutions is a good kit ot go with and is easy. If your doing one also the retrofitsource made an aftermarket projector in the style of the FX-35 just smaller and with a clear lens.
