3 times bigger than our SC's projector. Think of an IS300 headlight.

You must choose your stuff wisely.
TSX are really nice
I went with e46 and these were "just right" in size.

How is the output of the E46 in the SC headlight, and did you deline your headlights? I want a TSX or s2k retro for my car, but I've been lazy.

E46/TSX are easy installs...
I can pretty much guarantee you that the S2k won't go in...and if it does, its not going to look pretty...

That saves me some trouble and money since I already have 4 tsx projectors in the garage.
Do the lines effect output that much? Can I just leave them or is sanding them down ideal?
Do most of you guys just make the brackets or is there a place to buy them?
