Dont buy ebay projector lenses...pix within...(56k, you kidding me?)

[Spaniard]

I bought the projector ebay lenses just to try them out and see if they were actually any good. Build quality is not half bad and doesn't leak any moisture in, but omfg. These things have so much scatter light its not even funny.

Friend of mine was playing with the camera to get different pictures so you can get a good feel for what I'm talking about.

Man, those things would be great for say a baseball field.:sarcasm:

Can you do a comparison with stockers?

 

[Poodles]

jesus!! that's just ASKING to be pulled over...

Hella E-codes > all

 

[BorHor]

Real projector retro fit > E-code.

 

[Ckanderson]

Real projector retro fit > E-code.

of course.

that being said, lets compare the cost and time of a real projector retrofit, to putting in a set of Hella E- Codes.

I don't quite like the look of projectors on the stock headlight housing, if you go with the NSX or custom than yes but in the stock housing form i guess nothing really beats the Hella's

 

[Supracentral]

Those headlights are complete shit.

BAD:

GOOD:

I've got $1300 invested in the headlights on the hardtop MKIV:

Yours looks so much better compared to the ebay ones SC, but The non-level beam would annoy me. I had a 350z and the pattern was pretty straight. How would you go about correcting that?

 

[Supracentral]

You really can't with the shape of the MKIV's housing. Maybe you could on the MKIII. My MKIII will eventually end up tubbed with a 9" ford rear, so I doubt it will ever get HID's.

You get used to it btw.

The "flare" to the right is to illuminate roadside signs, the Hella E-codes do the same thing.

Those light are bad ass.......The glare is worse than what i spent on the diamond cut ebay housing. Now i have Hella E-code and I love them. I did make use of the ebay housing though, im in the middle of retrofitting lexus projectors into the housing but the projectors are too long. I might have to get some tsx projectors. Anyone else know what projectors i can use?

supracentral: ok, thanks for the info!

I bought a car with the ebay projector lenses on it. I remember lighting the top of my house pulling into the driveway! I switched those out quick!
