Thread: Should I take a chance on spec d projectors?

Here's a link to spec d tuning's projectors for the 97-03 grand prix. I've heard spyders aren't so great, are these better?

SPEC D 1PC DUAL HALO LED PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS for 97-03 Pontiac Grand_Prix at Andy's Auto Sport

I have those on my car ,yup they'll bounce till you shim the bumper. Then it'll only happen on huge bumps.

I purchased my h.i.d. from ddm @ the same time . I love the output on these. I hope my opinion helps you out bro.

thanks for the post, I'm trying to decide between spyder and these (or a good gp projector)

How do you shim the bumper?

I thought we've been thru this already on what you need to do for a real headlight setup.

I was just looking to get some for my 04 gtp. Any info on what is the best is welcome. Same goes for a hid kit

I worked at a dealership,when the new cars would come in i'd get the foam door protectors off of them,squished 2 one for each side then placed them under the bumper between the piece under the headlight and bumper support. Problem solved.

Sorry for the long response,just trying to be clear.

and we've also been through the prices, retrofits are from what I see much more expensive. If I can get most of what I want for less than I'll be happy.

There's a lot of time involved and that doesn't mean I'm going to do it right..

plus, your stuck with the 4 piece, bad design, headlight setup.

Exactly

I need to replace my headlights though because the are all milky and fogged over. So I was wondering what the best aftermarket ones would be?
