Projectors Installed

OK, I finally pulled the trigger on the new projector headlamps... here's the 'after' look.

How do you compare the light from these to the old headlights? Better? Did you have Xenons previously?

Nice look, BTW...

Mike,

Looks great! I plan on doing the same too. Where did you purchase the headlights?

Thanks,

Keith

The light output from these so far are much better and there's a sharp cutoff. I did notice on my way to work this morning that I need to adjust the aiming a little more to get it perfect.

No Xenons previously...just plain ol' H7 bulbs.

$165 [+tax] + $40 shipping. Much better than any retailer on eBay.

Would look good on a black...........

That looks awesome....where'd you get that pic? Looks like it's flirting with being illegal, but I'd have to look more into it. Thanks!

It's legal in Europe - got the E stamp.
It's a german guy "Mekke" that sells them for 265 Eur /pair
