    Okay, so I've always saw them and thought they were about the nicest looking headlights out there. I like the projectors, but every time I see nice looking set of stockers it just seems so refreshing and clean. The lights I'm talking about are these (don't know of an actual name for them):










    Links to them are here:

    I don't think I've ever seen anyone have them. Anyone know anything about them? If I could ever get them and mod projectors into them it seems these would be incredible

    Huh, didn't realize so many people had them... I guess they're just subtle, and I like that. But anyway, since my car's white (ivory white, ugh) I thought it might look kinda... off.. with the silver corners. I'm not sure. But yeah, going from pfyc ($250) to ebay (under $100) I might actually pick up a set. What's the quality like? they have any problems like the spyder style projectors have?

    Yeah, I creeped around becky's albums and saw that her corners were condensating quite a bit... but I'm sure I could just seal em good before I put them in and wouldn't have to worry about them...

    don't seal them. you need to vent them. if you seal them if they do get condensation in them then they will never clear up again.

    Yeeaaaah... that's kinda a no go. I could challenge my parents for one of the two stalls in our garage, but I'm sure that wouldn't get too far. I can just take them out if they start condensing and air them out, right?

    I would just pop the corner bulb out on a sunny day while I was parked at work. Just make sure to get to it quickly, otherwise the reflective material will start to flake off. Could always just drill a small hole on the underside of the capsules.....

    I said screw it and took apart my stockers and am going to paint them..... after my LIM task.
    Its just a car.......with rust and dreams for the future!!!!

    my corners leak, but watever its an easy 30 second fix.

    pop the hood, unscrew the corner, take it out, drain it, put it back in, screw it back down, drive around til it dries up the inside, put the light back in.

    wam bam thank u mam. do it atleast 3 times a week.

    Yeah, I might have to get these. How bad is the light output? If I could get some projector lenses and mod them in and get rid of the reflector, these would be tits.
