I was looking around and i found this company that has projector headlights for the Gen 5 cam... I don't know if these are any good.
I emailed them about 3 weeks ago to send me a picture of the actual product along with a question if they would do discounts for group buys... i have yet to recieve a reply. Maybe somebody else has better luck.

Let me know what you guys think?

That will not fit a Gen 5. In some countries, they have a Gen 4.5 that came out in 2002. The years for the projector are '00-'02. It will not fit. Those projectors are for the Gen 4.5.

Yeah those are not for GEN 5 they are for GEN 4.5 and you can buy those on EbAy for $78 dollars and they are asking almost $200

Those projectors aren't my cup of tea. I don't know, I just don't like the way they designed the housings on those headlights. It looks too bland. Like they just slapped on some projectors onto a plastic box. I like the ones to look like OEM. Something that'll look like it came out of Toyota. Those are just fugly to my eyes. But, I would buy it just to take the projectors out and then retro it onto mine.

so does that mean that there arent any gen 5 projectors out there?

Nope.

white3ch0c0late · 06-26-2005, 07:26 AM

None YET... I'm sure they'll release on sooner or later...

xpeed · 06-26-2005, 12:13 PM

Sooner, like how soon? Gen 5s been out on the market for 3 years already.

By the time they come out, the Gen 6 will come with projectors (hopefully)

They're crap. Pure crap. Like I said in an earlier post, aftermarket non-OEM projectors are terrible. I mean c'mon, some of those you see on that site are tinted blue?! Talk about stealing useable light from the spectrum... From the results I've seen the cutoff is terrible. You're better off finding an old pair of Integra or ES300 halogen projectors at a junkyard and retrofitting them into your headlamps housings yourself. It'll be cheaper and the light output/cutoff will be better than stock and A LOT better than those crappy ricer projector headlights you're showing us.
