Default Best Projectors??

I'm going to use projectors on my 2000 ES before I install a HID kit. What's the best to go with? Is there a popular one among Lexus owners?Thanks guys

Morimoto Mini H1, it's the easiest to retrofit with minor modifications.

Thanks brother it seems like that's the go to projector kit after messing around online. What about the Mini D2S?

I was talking to Retrofit Source earlier and he recommended the FX-Rs

The FX-R is nice but it involves a bit more modification then the Mini H1. The Mini H1 has a good size and fits real nice inside the housing along with the shroud. Now the Mini D2S is bigger and will not fit into the housing " I already tested that myself". If you new to this i would recommend the Mini H1 its very easy to install. Check out the videos on theretrofitsource of installations.

The FX-R uses D2S bulbs and the Mini H1 uses H1 bulbs shrouds vary and when choosing a shroud it shows you a option XB LED Halo's to choose from.

Would you go with the FX R if someone else was doing the work?

Ok but I'm still confused on what bulbs to choose from. I am putting a 4300K Phillips kit for my lows with this projector so should I just go with the 4300k option when ordering? Or one of the Phillips or Phillips Extreme Visions? I don't kbow what the hell all the different ones are or really mean.

Same with Shroud and Halos.
