    They're so cheap it's scary. I don't care about the bling factor, I just want something that has a better pattern than the stock bugeyes.

    Anybody have any idea what bulbs they take?

    Like I said, I don't give a damn about the style. It's how much light they trow down the road.

    One of the other members I talked to said they are hard to aim. I was going to get them, but as you can see they are made very cheaply. Might as well save and get the good ones for a couple hundred more.

    Uuuummmmm, sorry to say this....but those aren't projectors that are in the picture. They are quite definetly REFLector, and from the looks of them, since they don't have a reversed reflector over the lamp, and probably don't have a lot of money invested into R&D for designing a proper open lamp reflector, you'll be loosing a $hit ton of light to atmosphere.

    I'd put money down that they take an H3 from that tiny picture, but it's really hard to tell from such a small pic.

    funny how the aftermarket gets everyone with the "projector" deal.
    I had a TRUE projector setup in my '99 Impreza headlight. The projector was from a BMW 5-series. Remember, projector has a GLASS marble leans, NOT flashlight-style reflectors.

    This is how projectors look like and beam
