If you look at my Camry or any Camry with HID kit you would see an uneven light spots infront of the car because our projector could not projects a wide beam like TSX and alike. TSX is not the best projector out there but it is the most popular for retrofit because of nice cutoff line and ease of retrofit.
If I have to compare how bright the output...this is just IMO.
Gen6 stock halogen light= 1X output
Gen6 HID kit plug-n-play= 3X output
Any HID projectors retrofitted= 6X output

I haven't done any retrofit but I have gathered these informations from this forum and HIDplanet.com and have seen many pictures of different cars with Gen6 HID kit versus Gen5 and Gen6 retrofitted.
