Default Projector headlights for '03

Anyone out there have projector headlights on their '03 dakota with HID's? Looking for suggestions to keep my 9007 bulbs in a projector headlight, the stock headlight with HID is killing oncoming traffic. Thanks for any info.

Glad to see you're going with lenses, I hate seeing HIDs without them.

I'm looking to do the same thing, so I will watch this thread also.

Never heard anything back, so decided on these - http://www.xtralights.com/images/vie...productId=4198

They came in yesterday and will try and get them installed this weekend if I have time. Will send pics when I get them in.

Nice!! Those look good! Is the light output better than stock? Do you have HID's in them?
I have heard that the "bug eye" projectors have good light output, however, I havent heard anything about the "eagle eye" version.

HUGE improvement, these aren't HID but the amount of light they put out is way better then stock, at least 2x better. I love them. the bug eye and eagle should be the same, only different is the eagle eye has a separate high beam. but the low beam is the same. They definitely light up the road ahead.
