For the best output the HID kit would be very useful. Doing a projector retro without having an HID kit doesnt seem to click for me. but im curious to what people have to say.

using halogen bulbs in those projectors is retarded, they wont even fit inside the socekts correctly and will flop around in the projectors.

Depends on the projectors. Some did use halogen bulbs however the ones the the OP states that he has require a HID bulb to fit into the socket.
