    just wait for it to break in before you decide, because they will get deeper and more rich in color

    I havent had my two 10" subs in there for more than 2 yrs. Got tired of the heavy bass and the lack of space.

    I want FX-R projectors but I may try some much superior LS430 projectors, but if so, I must get some JDM heads since LS430's are low-beam only.
    Since you are doing quite a bit of research on HID retrofits and you are beginning to move forward with it, I have to ask, Why not just buy a DDM kit and select D2S as bulb size?

    Oem bulbs are the only ones to be trusted when it comes to projectors, mainly optics. See, oem bulbs are more than likely to be straight, where as rebased have a greater chance of being not straight. When it comes to the optics of projectors, the littlest error can produce a bad cut off or a dark spot.

    Am I making sense? Lol

    I know exactly what you mean. No newb here, I was mainly referring to cost. I also went over to hidplanet and did a bit of homework and now they have me thinking twice about aftermarket kits. LoL.

    In reference to the example you gave about arc positioning, on the Tahoe/Yukon forum I go on from time to time, one of the members had a bad experience using eBay projectors with a PnP kit, he said the output sucked and posted pictures of drastically affected cut-offs and dark spots.

    Yeah that's ridiculous! LOL! That's how my first S13 (240SX) was when I stuffed two 12" subs in the trunk. Only space to put stuff on the sides and that was it! LOL!

    I replaced the neutral safety switch, hoping it was the fix my car needed to start. No such luck.

    Hids in halogen projectors will do that lol. Hell, Halogen bulbs in halogen projectors from ebay suck. My buddy has a tc that's a show car with halogen projectors and its god awful.
