Projector headlights?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/_Car-...=p4506.c0.m245

I saw these and I don't really like them, but I don't hate them either and I think the black would look good. What do you think?

It says universal so I doubt they are a good fit.

YAY OR NAY?

(Ignore the bid has ended.)

Re: Projector headlights?
I just did a search and found plenty of info. Looks like you dont want the cheap ones, something about the only projector part is the lense, and thats not very good. Search and you should find plenty.

This should help alot http://www.thirdgen.org/techboard/au...tor+headlights (Black projector headlights)

I met a guy who had ones like that on a Tacoma, he hated them.

Re: Projector headlights?
Judging from the photos, they don't look like projectors at all. I think projectors in a square housing just look bad.

I would try to fit one of these real projector modules onto a panel that replaces both sealed beams.
