I just got a se camry 2003. the car is similar to the es in some ways and radiacally different in others. I have hid on my bimmer and the light output at night. Although the camry lights are not bad they can be better wtih hids. I was wondering if anyone knows what I need to do to have hid.

I do not have a kit, only a oem retrofit, ie does the es use a projector with d2s or does it use a reflector with d2r bubls. Any insight would be great, and if I can do this myself. Is the headlight housing openalbe and is it just swap or slot of modding to get them to fit.

Thanks in advance

i have a d2s projector on my car....i think projector is better

unless is an 02-05, it came stock with reflector type. 02-05 is an option to have projectors i believe.

yes it has halogen reflectors. I am not sure if the projector is a simple bolt on to the headlights? And if they can be opened easily. I know my car'e headlights were sealed shut so I had to get some aftermarket headlights that could be opened and closed with tabs.
