    Yeah, very poor. I bought a pair and sure they look good, but at night I couldn't see SH*T. I had to drive with the high beams on and it was like driving with some good fog lights. I am going HID now.

    Retrofits or stock. HID's in reflector housings are obnoxious to other drivers and scream rice.

    I really want to retrofit but I don't have time, so I am going the rice way I guess.

    Just get some from Classy you won't be disappointed. Those cheap eBay projectors suck and leave a lot to deserve.. If
    You really want better light output retro it the only way to go.

    Could you link me to that site? If it's affordable I will, I rather be legal and not a nuisance then be a problem.

    I have his projectors as well, worth every penny. Sorry if that came out a bit dickish, I just deal with being blinded with HID's too often in PA.

    ^ No offense taken, I honestly rather do it the right way than the wrong way. But how long do those projectors last and if they do go out, how easy is it to change?
