i know that this is a dead post but if im not mistaken those aren't reall projectors. they have what appears to be the optic lense but i don't see the reflector bowl (or any bulges to indicate it's there.

i have hid pnp bulbs (6k) and while i do love them they are still not as bright as modern halgens. that's the reflectors fault. but maybe you could use these housings to hold a real projector. im stuffing some low beam valeo's in the aero lights for myne and when i'm finished with it the cutt off will be a razor sharp line. reall projectors don't have all that blead off. im also fiting myne with hid bulbs and (some free 8k's) and they don't mess up the beam pattern and honestly look whiter than my current 6k's. that just the because of the projector vs reflector. i don't know how hard these assemblies are to open up but none the less it's something to think on.

 

Its just a magnifying glass bubble under the lens, not sure what you mean. But they perform really terribly, they look awesome though lol. I have to use my high beams most the time, I think it has something to do with the black reflector but they are the only black 4x6's I can find. Poor reflector design means I'm HOPING that some good HID bulbs might make up for some of the slack but not outperform stock headlights.

What if I put some fog lights down in the lower bumper shield, those are legal to drive with all the time right? They also don't blind you like high beams I don't think.

 

4 burning bulbs max is the law in most states. i don't know about how bright though. personal expirence is that the fog lights will help a very small amount with foreground lighting but not much. driving lights do slightly better but again not much. i have 55 driving lights in the valance and they do help with foreground lighting and seeing in the rain at night. so they are helpfull in a way. i have 100 wat driving lights mounted in the grill that i use for highbeams. they have much better performance than the fogs but still nothing like a headlight. the beam spreads out so much that there isn't much to go a long distance. but with good low beams that's not a terrible concern. with good low beams you should have some distance but not blind every one on the road. i think that i would look at retrofitting reall projectors in there.
a projector has a reflector bowl (it's just that all it does it aim it in a general direction out of the front) a cutoff shield (defines just high the beam is and determines high or low beam pattern) and the lense (optic lense that basically straightens the light so that it goes out in a flat parttern and it more controlled.

the black reflector probly doesn't help but consider the black reflector if you do go hid's. it will hold in alott of heat and may melt.
the good thing about all of the lights we put on our trucks is we have backups if something breaks

 

I will have to take some detailed photos of my lens, they use a single H4 bulb (dual high/low beams). Not sure what my wattage is, 4 burning bulbs you say? Well what about not using fog lights and using those lights on the roll-bar if they are not aimed like a high beam?

Well they sell the same lenses on eBay in a kit with HID ballasts and bulbs people bundled together so I would assume they hold up to the heat. I really never thought about trying to hide 2 more headlights in the grill, my grill is entirely cutout with mesh so technically I can place them anywhere I want. I would want the smallest lights I can find and with possibly a tinted lens so that they are not visible through the mesh.

 

the thing about tinted lenses though is that your light output is murderd. if you want form over function that's your personall taste but it will be hard to get the light you want. there projector fog lights available and they may well be just what you are looking for. during the daytime the lenses aren't terribly obvius.
they would appear to be greyish. the housings are black on those to. i know the have em at the local autozone here.

 

If I had fog lights in my very lower bumper instead of grill I wouldn't mind them being clear like my turn signals. However I can't seem to locate one of those lower bumper shrouds with the fog light punch outs for an 87-91 anywhere.

I will just do the HID conversion in my lenses to start with and see what kind of results I get.

 

i used aftermarket ones. myne isn't cut for fogs either. i mounted them in the little open slats off to the sides. yeah it's just mounted to the plastic (really big washers on the other side to spread the load) but as far as im conerned that's just fine. if they hit when im off road chances are i can pick em back up take em home and remount them. the ones in the grill are good and safe. i broke out one of the smaller slats (not the big ones that form the crosshair) on each side and set them back in there. they do ok for high beams since they are just to flood the area infront of me with light and the pattern is decent but still not like reall high beams. they woulde be awsome to suplement low beams though. they are brighter than the stock low beams now that they have 100 watt bulbs in there.
