    F*ck........Dude you can't beat that price and they include the HID's.
    I wish I would have gotten that price when I bought mine.
    I would jump on that but that's me. I have the bulbs that shipped with the projectors and they are WAY better than stock. I can only imagine with HID's they must be wicked.

    That's a good deal with HIDs. I have HIDs in mine and they are way better than the halogens that come with the projectors. You will be happy with them.

    I think if you were to replace your lights with the plain old capsules you would be bumming cause you know you want the projectors.
    You could find some cheap OEM type on ebay but then you might be replacing them cause they leak.
    If I had cash I could spend on these I would and replace the ones I have now and then save them for replacements.

    Because of the design, the projectors aim inward, so the beams cross. You can align them so that the beams don't cross (but still point inward slightly), but then there's a huge gap between the headlight housing and the bumper. Some of them are also aimed downward more than they should be, but that can be easily fixed with washers.

    Even with the beams crossing, though, light output is still significantly better than stock. At that price with HID's included, I'd say they're worth it.

    Well the fittment issue of the gap can be fixed with foam weatherstripping so it isn't as noticable but I am working on an alternative solution at this time. It should fill in the gap very nicley.
    Maybe I will be able to get some pics up by the weekend or the beginning of next week.
    I think you guys will like it.

    I don't have the HID's but I got the Projectors and the only complaints I had about them is the fact they bounced (fixed that) and that the beam cut off too low. Me having a lowered car, well, I aimed them up but it still didn't help too much. For the money I wish I would have found those, but I bought mine awhile ago and paid over $300 for them...
