    i dont really want projectors, ive heard to much bad things about aiming, not fitting, leaking, crappy wiring. plus im not so sure i like the look. it just doesnt look right. they need a new design or somethin

    projectors don't give you more light, they direct more of it in the direction that is useful for a car.

    The end all would be projectors and HID's really. Get a stupid amount of light and put it where you need it most.

    Yup.

    I've never had projectors either. Have been down the HID road though. (non projector style) they do put more light on the road and let you see more when say turn onto a dark street.
