Default Finally, it comes out, It's OEM Projector Housing

I just got mine. Waiting the garage to put those on with HID tomorrow.
Not to mention it comes with CCFL Angel Eye, and projector fog light.

I bought it from Taiwan.

Here is the photo.

You're most likely going to need to replace the projector if you want to put HID bulbs in there. The cutoff will be VERY messy.

Putting a xenon bulb in a halogen projector will result in poor cutoff since the focal point of halogen bulb is different.

Take some pictures when you get the HID's in there, and post them!

I am currently using HID in my old housing and I want to swap the HID into the projector housing. The manufacturer said that the projector is for Xenon bulb. Anyway, we'll see. I am going to get it installed today.

So, any updates with the Headlights? I'm so anxious to see how they turn out.

for the bulbs, Philips Xtreme power is the new thing, I have used silverstar ultra, so far i'm happy with them BUT untill I see a test over the internet comparing the silverstar ultra and philips Xtreme power and the philips wins hands down, And it's pretty cheap. So I highly recommend it if you're not going for HID.
