The cutoff lines are even crisper than OEM HID’s, since I put in clear lenses for the projectors as opposed the frosted or whatever it’s called lenses that normally come in OEM HID projectors. As for pics of the light output, I forgot about that. I can take some tommorow night.
That is what i have been trying to tell guys that shove HID's in their halogen housings. if they thing that is bright...They know nothing!

Called fresnel lenses. They aren't frosted, but have lines in them.

Looks good. Who did the retro? And BTW...I have $500 into my lights doing them myself.

Someone needs to do this and so a write-up I just can't justify $700 on headlights. Those are just cool.

There are lots of basic vids on youtube you can pick up on and follow to do your own. Dirty did a good one in his thread. Its really not too hard although one thing wrong can hinder your or cost you.
