ehh...I wouldnt personally, and they tend to leak.
Best projector for any SC, is a retrofitted set of OEM's.

NO way ho say. Just find some good used ones and red them. Plenty of threads to do this method.

I have Em. No leaks so far in about a year. Fitment is decent.
They require a little bit of wiring surgery and I dunno if its the headlight or my car, but they eat bulbs and most the halo/led stiff has burnt out

From what I have seen, not really. I have a sharper cut-off line with my stock 92 headlights.

The lighting from the stock projectors will surpass anything aftermarket unless you do a legit retro. For the cost of those aftermarket headlights, you're over halfway to the cost of a retro anyways (depending on what parts you choose), and it looks factory.
