lmao, smartass
in reading up on projectors people claim that they have different quality optics...

thanx bro, would greatly appreciate it

going to post a few... whats your opinions on these?

1. http://images.channeladvisor.com/Sell/SSProfiles/82000064/Images/3/PHL-EXPD-0305-C-JY-P.jpg


number one, the optics look great on the projector, but i dont like the ricey look of the leds and line thingy...

2.

number 2 has a tinted projector, which would be pointless imo with hids

3.

three the projector looks good, and no rice

4.

four is similiar to three, however the projector is flat in the front which would not be good and im pretty sure its completely round in three

5.


five is my favorite and they even show it on an XP, but I cant tell if the projector is flat in the front or round... what do you guys think?

I'd go with 5, but I don't like projectors.

I'm pretty sure if its a projector lamp...it's round. that's the whole purpose of them. So if you like #5 go with that. It's finally dark here so i'll take a pic when i get home from work

well #4, the bottom pic looks like its flat in the front, and 5 looks to be similiar in style


BTW, my expedition is medium wedgewood blue, if that makes a dif in your opinion....

thanks alot on the pics

Nah...#4 is round too. You can tell by how the light is reflecting off part of the glass. I don't think I've ever seen an after market projector that is not rounded.

ok, #5 looks as close to stock, so ill prolly try that one, want to do it right, so i should really get projectors of some sort... i will prolly end up putting and oem projector in place of the aftermarket one in that housing anyway

will these all use the stock 9006 bulbs? ive read that a few had to rewire things...
