The best product so far is a combination Low beam D2r bulb and a h7 bulb mounted on top. No moving parts = better reliability. I'll try to post the pictures of the bulbs and what it looks like on my car. FYI I have the euro spec headlight H4 and it cost me $446 plus shipping. Man, I hope that's not a photoshop cause I want!


its real. Met the guy over at HIDforum.com.....unfortunately the forum got hacked so its down for now. Retrofitting a projector is relatively simple. The tricky part was the polycarbonate lens...but from what the owner and I were talking about, the lens was attached in a very "ghetto fashion." Before the forum went down the there was much talk about using new optically clear epoxies to "remove" (ie. fill in) the texture of the factory lens thus leaving one with a clear glass "factory" lens.

I'm going to be replacing the lenses on my '94 E420 because of large rock chips. After I remove them I am going to play with the epoxy idea and see how well it works. If it does...........then bi-xenon projectors here I come!


HERE are is a place where one can get whatever projector you want.
