Default Projector headlights.

I want projector headlights but so far am having trouble finding ones WITHOUT all the ***gy leds and angel eyes. Anyone know a good brand?

Purdy, but not cheap.

^^ those are nice if you don't want to do any of the work yourself.

otherwise you can do what they did, buy some decent aftermarket clear lens lights and retrofit projectors into them.

fairly simple to do if you can keep the wife/gf out of the kitchen for a while so you can bake your headlights to get them warm enough that the glue goes back to a liquid state.

then put these in: http://www.theretrofitsource.com/pro...roducts_id=237

those are very high quality projectors comparable to Acura TL projectors. They are specifically designed for HID light, so they aren't going to blind people and once you get the front lens off the housing they are easy as pie to install.

you have halo rings optional.

the morimoto's are nice. and I like the D2S kit better than the H1 kit.

D2S is an OEM bulb. H1 is aftermarket...

any car with factory HID's will have the D2S socket style bulb, not the aftermarket two wires crap that plugs in.

Socket style is easier to hook up anyway, and easier to find higher quality bulbs for.

yeah I don't need the HID's. The standard projectors are good enough. Had them on a KNeon. They were outstanding for under 200$ except for they flickered over bumps which was good becuase people would pull over for me LOL. good thing cause they were gooing to slow anyways,
