A lot of these are RHD patterns. None of the ebay cheapies have proper adjustment capability and the fit is....questionable. Going for the single H4 bulbs means you'll need to build relays to get both low and high beams. I've had all the styles in my day and the best light output is from the projectors...but the 'halos' are shite (LEDS, not proper CCFLs) and getting them to fit right is a uphill challenge. Easiest way for best output is an enclosure that takes the stock 9005/9006 bulbs and clip down a 9005 bulb to fit the 9006 pigtail. I've discussed this before, including police not giving a darn and the lack of glare issues--the cap in the reflector eliminates the need for a cap on the bulb itself. You'll go through bulbs a little quicker, but it's a lot cheaper than HIRs. Don't go HIR if you're running the stock frosted lenses, it's not an efficient use of money.
yeah, your car is stock, leave all the lights alone. It is bad enough you put HIDs in the head lights. But again, what is your goal? Do you want it to look good during the day, or be brighter at night? The projector lights have a poor output IMO. And I had them all.

well im planning on painting my car red.
my interior is red already..
Ah, well then I think that these head lights will be the best for you with that color. These will look the best and have the best output at night, and you can reuse the HIDs you have http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/93-97...item20bc45e16c
i used to have the ones chris just posted with 6000k hi and lo beams and the output was okay. i do a lot of night driving and i was satisfied. i will let you know that if you have hids in them they will melt off that little cap inside the lense. at least mine did anyway. oh, and i got mine to properly adjust.... on a geo nonetheless.

in the headlight lamp its self, there is a cap that covers the low beam bulb to help reduce brightness, and no it didnt do any damage. my car was the same color as yours by the way and those headlights look good with that color.
yeah these head lights look good with pretty much any color, and they still look stock enough for and otherwise stock car. The projector lights tend to look just ricey. Also, I had the 2 projector head lights. Putting HIDs in the projectors causes the reflective chrome inside to tarnish, reducing output over the years. And the projector lights take different bulbs, so your current ones won't fit.

yes that is true, because normal projectors are made for halogens and not HIDs...that is why people pay a bunch of money to get better projectors. (like s2000, lexus projectors) people retrofit their projector headlights to better projectors.

well that is just a very minor reason. I have completed 2 different projector retrofits for my Corolla (you can see on in my sig pic). I have tons of information on retrofitting and stuff if you like. But there are many good reasons to use the proper projectors for HID than halogen projectors.
