Projectors are better for hids, but with these new housings and proper aiming im pretty close to the hids and projectors in my escape as far as the cut off goes.

Hmm, I never heard of that brand, I did quite a few cheaper china kits before, had better luck with those kits vs my expensive retro-solutions kits I have now.

So your saying I should just do the projectors -- or is the hid 6000k conversion kit on that site going to do what I want?

Those kits will do what your looking for, the projectors aim hid light better, just make sure you aim them after you install. I set up a board about 4 feet away in my garage and ended up lowering the bulbs quite a few inches, I have never been flashed.

I will be sure to re-aim...

Sweet -- I think I may do the interior change over as well -- for mine with a sunroof looks like only $100... definitely worth that

Thanks

Hmm, I don't think there is a difference from 12 to 13, I would email them.

What interior lights are you going with?

I've gotten a few kits from this guy including the ones on my truck.

Slim's HID Xenon Source | HID Xenon Conversion Kits | Home

They have pretty good customer service and very quick responses if you need them.

I get them from recon truck (link on the first page near the bottom). Make sure you read the notes when selecting the part no.... If you have a sun roof or 4 interior lights you need 2 parts...

I'd shoot them an email. I don't see why he wouldn't have anything for the new trucks. It's just a bulb :-)
