it doesnt matter what brand/car or whatever the project came from when retrofitting right? all of them will be able to hook up to the battery?

you don't connect projectors to battery... unless you are talking about bi-xenon projector and plan to use its feature..

what do you mean you dont connect it to the battey, then how do they get power?.....

you connect bulb or ballast to the power source.. depending on the type of projector you are going to buy. If you are buying those projectors from luxury cars that are equipped with HID... then most likely these projectors take D2R/D2S bulbs.. which are HID, you will then need to buy ballasts as well.. unless you can modify the stock halogen bulb base..

Don't connect headlights directly to the battery without the protection of a fuse. Check on here on how to do it right:
