Default Why so much hatered towards Angel Eye Projectors?

Well, I just got a pair of angel eye projectors for my 93 si hatch. And I have to say I love them. I've read so many post about how much the light output is horrible and worse than stock, but in my opinion they are great, with wonderful light out put. I was going into these thinking that the H3 bulb would look like **** since its normally for a foglight, but i was surprised with its effectiveness. I did however swap out the normal H3 bulbs with some silverstar. They look and work great........... even though everyone on here claims they are so rice they are the "next altezzas'"

next altezzas? these have been around for about 3 years.
reason why people hate on them is because they are rip off BMW wanna be headlights.

My gf wanted them on her EK so I got them for her. I don't mind them since I was gonna get them for my bimmer before I sold it but the only beef I really have with them was I knew that the light would not go all away around and that they utilize H3 bulbs, I have to change out her turn signals this week so I'm gonna experiment on fitting H1's in to see how it goes.

Because the fact is it uses h3 bulb for its lighting display. That is not enough lighting out.
