Default Reflectors or Projectors???

I'm under the impression that my 96 LS uses reflectors and not projectors. Is this right?
If I wanted to install an HID kit, what would be a better choice in terms of quality of the light? Is it possible to convert it then to a projector?

I'm assuming you are running halogen lights in the LS. If so, they will give out lots of glare if you switch over to HID, unless you were able to swap in some other Lexus reflector setup. Lexus is well known for having the best HID reflector setups. Projectors don't usually dissapoint though.
