LOL. You gotta get something that looks like the ebay link to have a true projector. Thats just a curved peice of glass you have there to make it look like you have a projector. In reality all it does is scatter the light like crazy and give you horrible throw and absolutely no cutoff. Let someone drive your car and drive at it in another car. You will be blinded hardcore when you do this. Retrofit FTW

Yeah...are are far from projectors.
A genuine projector retrofit has an output like this:

Beautiful cutoff HIDPLANET..

Question though, would it be easier to retrofit a real projector into the aftermarket 'projector' housings.. or into stock housings? I'd assume the aftermarket because they already have a poor quality one in there. Just not sure if anyone's done this before.

Thanks.

do they do any diamond cut style headlights for the A70 in the same size as the factory housings? i had raybrigs on my old JZA70 and want something similar as the stockers are shit with HID and all i can find is cheap ebay crap!

yeah cut off is nice, but projectors only look good if they are twin/retro fit. retaining the factory housing with a projector in the middle looks like ass IMO

If those Raybrigs are True JDM like they say, they're aimed the wrong way. They will aim the light into oncoming traffic.

You want Hella E-Code Housings as stated a few times before. They're European spec, and are for RH Rule of Road, which will aim the light from the centerline of the road off to the right.
