    Okay, hear me out on this. The general concensus on here is that Ebay projector HIDs are not that great and don't have good light output. BUT... you can't argue that the one piece look is better looking than the two piece look of the originals. Also, since retro-fits are the ultimate prefered for best output, what about taking Ebay projectors such as spider projectors, and retro-fitting them? How difficult would this be, and would it be even possible? I'm not trying to argue the concept of cost, but this would keep the look of the single piece headlight, and give you the benefits of the light output of a retro-fit kit.

    If anyone wants to chime in on the possibility of this, or a good way to get it to work, please do. I am however NOT trying to start a "this headlight is better than that headliht" arguement.
