Im planning on doing my retrofit soon and idk what i should do where the high beams are. i am already going to put an led strip along the bottom of the light but i feel like the corner part needs something. what do you guys think? should i leave it empty or put something there?

Just throw an led bulb in there to fill the space, maybe make that a turn signal?

Make a quad projector retrofit. Two projectors per headlight ftw.

Just go with some projectors? What do you think Retro's are? Not to mention the quality of an ebay projector and a real bi-xenon projector is night and day.

thats personal opinion.. and you can make a set look more OEM than most, by keeping the capsules chrome inside and with chrome shouds. IMO spyders and other similar "projectors" look ricey. retros on the other hand dont.
and ill admit when i first started seeing retros being done i though they looked ugly to. but even at that point i knew i was going to do one, why? because its simply the best way to light up the road. Sure ebay projectors put out " 10x" more light than stock, but morimoto projectors put out 10x more than that. i want the best especially when the lives of my loved ones and myself and my car are on the line.

Please explain to me what's ugly about that,
or that,
or even that,
I don't think you should offer an opinion to someone unless you've owned both. You hinted on 2 things wrong with the ebay projectors. What about the junk broken tabs you'll be dealing with in the months to come, or the oversized junk ebay projector with it's fresnel lense and terrible output? What about having to run 6 ballasts on the car to have hid hi beams along with low beam hid and hid fogs? What about the useless hid hi beam you get in the ebay projectors? What about the horrible fit that you get with ebay projectors? What about it being cheaper to do a real retrofit than it is to buy ebay projectors if you have a little know how and can do them yourself? You can eliminate cross beam on retro's, try that with ebay projectors. What about having to buy 2 hid kits and 4 hid bulbs compared to 1 hid h1 kit?
I used to like you my friend but a 1 sided opinion does GPF no good....... that's my story!
