#79057, "another projector question"


          

blah, most of the topics are old and not much use for me. Im sick of the stock looking 95 lights and i would really like projector headlights. basically, sense all the projectors off of ebay are now the dual projector do they use the stock bulbs. this is very important for me cuz i bought PIAA XTreme bulbs and they are really really nice and i am definitly keeping them so i need a pair that uses stock bulbs. i would love the angel eyes but its not as important as the bulbs. i would also like the blue or "ion" housing in the one side. im iffy about ebay, if theres anyone on here that has ordered the dual projector 95-96 ones, do you know if they use the stock bulbs. if not, how hard is it to change the bulb housings so i could just mod it to accept my new bulbs....theres one site that has them for a bit more, but at least its not ebay. http://www.racerwheel.com/rt100656.html

thanks a ton

Yea, E-bay projectors are fine in my opinion I have a set and they are good just you need to align them good. As far as your bulbs go you cant use the stock bulbs those are 9005s the projectors use H3s. You are better off just buying some new bulbs in H3. You can get Nokya Artic Whites for $20 and I am almost certain you will love them because they work great in my car.

Most dual projectors, that i know of, use stock lights...its the single ones that use the different lights. I know the ones nopi sells were compatible with the stock bulbs, not sure if any company has altered that at all though emoji

the dual projectors are by APC (generation II). those are the ones nopi and a few other places sell. they use your stack harness and bulbs. most other projectors suck b/c of the different bulb they use.

or you could just get a HID kit and all your lighting problems would be solved emoji

btw the blue ion projector casts a YELLOW light pattern. yes YELLOW. they look cool during the day since they're blue but at nite you won't be that happy if you're going for that blusih/white look. the clear projectors will let the white light through normally. if you have hiper white bulbs with a blue coating a clear projector lense will probably look bluish during the day anyways.

I heard the apc dual projectors dont fit right and look like crap. Also on ebay alot of the listings say "dual projectors" but they aren't. They're still single halos... why they say dual? i dont know.

Don't work for the system, Let the system work for you.
