If you would like to custom make projectors for us Gen4 guys, that would be great, as you've done for your Gen3. If not, I'll be working on a projector project for the H4 Gen4s, but it'll take a while to make sure it's good craftsmanship.

I'd be interested... not sure if I want to take the HID or projector route though... projectors just look so much neater even when the lights are off though

I was wondering about the REAL differences between projector headlights and HID's, what are their distinctions in terms of functionality, life and price???

Which one is better?

Both are better over stock halogen reflectors. The "REAL" difference is that the projectors are the housing, and it controls how the light is dispersed (i.e. beam pattern and cutoff.) The HID units are the mechanisms for creating the bright light.

you think it would be hard to get someone to make a custom clear lens for the headlight? but since its using the oem cover it kind of hide the projectors.
