Please note that real HID or projector headlights need to have a ballast for each light and vehicle specific pnp wiring harness. Anything else is just brighter bulbs not aimed correctly. If you want true projector headlights do some research on theretrofitsource website. You can send your headlights in and have projectors installed, purchase another set of headlight and have those converted or you can do them yourself. The biggest difference I found is the cutoff line of my projectors is set at the same height as my stock headlight cutoff line. That makes oncoming cars very happy, as I have not yet been flashed for having lights to bright. IMO they are a must compared to stock lights if you do alot of night time driving.
