Why not these ones:

You can get all of the headlights that you posted on ebay...

This probably belongs in appearance cosmetic BTW...

Aftermarket projector sucks. They uses H3 bulbs which are not bright at all. Even in conjunction with PIAA bulbs, light output still sucked. Unless your using it in order to retro fit an HID projector better invest in better bulb for your stock headlights. Just my .02c

there is no way that aftermarket projector headlights are brighter than stock. as stated above they use h3 bulbs which are made for secondary lighting. just get some stock ones with some nice piaa bulbs or silverstars

the term brighter depends on the person. projectors have a cut off point that a lot of people don't like, so they seem dimmer than stock headlights. But the areas that are lit up are brighter and because the light is more focused.
That is IF you use the wiring harness that comes with the Denji projectors.
The TYC projector's output is a little less, more compatable with stock headlights. Just more concentrated due to the projector cut off.

I run PIAAs with the harness in my Denjis and most people think I have HIDs.
But aiming becomes more critical with projectors... if they are a little low you will over-run the lights, if they are a little high you will be blinding on comming traffic really badly.
Much more so than stock headlights.

Sounds like they are not worth the hassle. Just get some stock ones and put nice bulbs in them. I have heard that the jdm(STOCK) ones are brighter.
