ok, i know there is a fourm of diffrent opinions/installs and suggestions. But i need to know if i can use my aftermarket projector headlights to run HID and get the same quality look like the S2K?? Or do i have to do a retrofit?? Its currently H1 for lowbeams and H3 for high. The current H1 bulbs and projectors are not that bright so i'm looking for something brighter w/o spending loads of cash. Does anyone have any clue on which progector will work and what style. Like i said, i dont need the hi/low projector. Thanks guys.


p.s here is the pic of the headlights:

no you need to retro fit.

 

on top of a retro fit you looking at 3-700 bucks depending on if you do the work yourself.

 

you can get the D2R bulbs and ballasts for around 200 and BMW projectors for around 120. BMW projectors are almost as great as S2K but cheaper. then you can do a retro fit.

 

On top of that i have a friend that does retro fits for a good price, if you are interested gimme a msg

 

ok, so i know that i need to retrofit these but anyone know which one to use?? I know some have hi/low beam projectors(all in one). Does the D2S do both or just low?? I just need low beam, high beam will stay stock. Thanks

 

hi/low beam projectors use just 1 bulb. the only thing the hi/ low does is move the plate that blocks off half the lighting. So the bulb stays the same but the plate just moves totally out of the way giving you the full light out of the projector

 

Is this your car???? I hope not with that huge body kit (not trying to be an ***)

 

yea it is, why?? its a widebody

 

sell that front bumper to help pay for it lol

edit:post pics of the rest of the car

 

I think that car needs a match and some gas to light the way.

Lose the Santa Ana ricer swap meet bumpers

Thos kits do not give you the real HID look, they are only really bright headlights. Cops will get you for them.

 

exactly, i was going to buy some MTEC hid kit($300-400) but decided to try and retrofit a true HID kit.

I sincerely doubt that.

 

do not go get a HID kit...I did that with my old denji projectors & results were horrible.... there was no cutoff, glare was rediclulous, scattered light everywhere

I would retrofit projectors into your housings

for low beam only get s2k projectors for hylow get acura TL Bi-xenon projectors

 

it looks like a shark.

 

retrofit is the way to go. There is a guy on here that does hid retrofits, he's the best, trust me... forgot his sn...

Really not trying to break your ***** or anything but take the "widebody" off man. Your car would look a lot better without a body kit.

No body kit
No alumninum wing
No altezzas

Car is A-ok after that.

 

retro fit them all the way

leave this guy alone if he wants a body kit on his car let him have his bodykit whatever makes him happy btw goodluck

 

tnks Matts, like i said, bodykits molded......no turning back
