Projector headlights?

[MustangJunkie]

I was thinking about putting some projectors on my ride like the ones in this link:

Anyone have these? How well do they work? How do they look? Pics anyone?

Why not just get some Sylvania Silverstars or PIAA headlights? You will still have your highbeams and your ca$h...

It's not so much the light output as it is the yellow reflectors on the sides. I can do without the yellow.

I was thinking about these on my 98 GT, still not sure...too many performance mods to do first.

projectors are bright, you will be able to see much better at night

There was somebody who posted a smoked version of that housing with a really good price. I think that thread was lost with the crash. Whoever posted that...can you do so again?

you can get them from mrbodykit.com but check ebay they are probably like 200 bucks now. i still dont know if i like them or not but i cant get them because you cant use a HID bulb with them

Did we ever get a real reason why they won't work with HID bulbs or just a no?

 

[MT1083]

They just told me no, and didn't really give me a reason.

Makes me wonder...

Who said that?

You don't lose the high beams...the outer lamps are your normal driving lights and the inner ones are your high beams...I can understand why the HID bulbs will not work...you don't plug directly into the bulb as you do now with the factory lamps, you plug into a pigtail that comes out the back of the housing...the bulb is well sealed in the unit and there is some special wiring configuration you can see when you open up the back of the housing

What kind of bulbs do the projectors use? The same as the stock headlights?

here is a pic of them....some have the clear projector lens and some have the blue/purple lens...I think the purple lens has not been release as of yet...still a few more weeks.

i remember reading before the crash a guy on here was taking his off because the lighting sucked and there was minimal adjustability for the beam.
