hey thanks a lot for your help! do you know what would be involved to do a highbeam? so, what i'll do is cut off my H4 socket, obtain 2 9006 sockets, re-wire them back on, obtain some 9005 silverstars cut-off the tabs and put them in the sockets. that sounds easy enough. i just might have some difficulty w/ the high beam setup. Does anyone know if there is enough space to fit a 9006/9005 bulb in a projector? thanks

I have no idea what is going on here. I had no idea you could transform an h4 socket to 9005!

H3 Super Plasma, They look pretty damn cool through the projectors, almost like the audi Hid color, beam is pretty bright, but not anywhere near hid brightness, IMO its better than the stock housing, more direct beam.
Really? Interesting... I think the output is horrible. Planning to retrofit real projectors from German engineering

thats my opinion, im not looking for a bmw beam, but the halo projectors are a much more concentrated beam patter, the downside is that it uses a puny h3 bulb. In any case i like them.

Just curious though, what headlight housing brand did you get? All the ones I've bought have poor light output

My first set of projectors were from Autodynamics, the brand WAS Denji, yes they were better than the other 2 sets I've bought else where.. I don't know if you have the same as mine, but even with HID, the light is not as good as a higher quality housing... thus I'm chucking these cheap ones for a better set.
