HID's Or Projectors?
-->NEW PICS AT THE BOTTOM<--
Just purchased a set of R34's. Took them apart to clean and restore the lens. So now that they are apart i can take atvatage of a retro via my buddy or Put them back together and get a HID set from a buddy.. Projectors are coming out of these headlights...they also have the halo's http://www.wesellcarparts.com/store/...PWRX02JMBH.jpg |
both
|
Haha wouldnt that be almost blinding? Also the down side with the HID's is the cost to replace bulbs..
|
HID bulbs rarely burn out. They'll be blinding (glare) without projectors. IMO they're annoying and too bright either way, though. I'd go with halogen projectors, personally. Whatever you do, don't put HIDs in reflector housings.
|
HID projectors
|
Any projectors will be better than those R34 reflectors so definitely do a retro if you can. Also, whether you get HID or halogen projectors use HIDs. They won't be blinding at all, that's what the cutoff shield is for.
|
Definitely u need both in r34s
|
It will be less blinding than just h.I.d.s
|
Man everyone is against hids in stock housing.

As most have stated above, do BOTH!!! :king: I have HID projectors and I couldnt be happier!! :jump:
|
HID projectors FTW.. i'm starting mine this weekend with the j30 projectors in r34 housing.. with 35w hid's
|
I Have HID's now and i am dying to get the Projectors because if its brightness you want you can always get HID Fog Lights
|
If you have the $$$ and time, HID+retrofit. If you don't and want to peak your interest and get marginally better lighting. Buy aftermarket halogens (PIAA, Hella, Nokoya).

Retrofit projectors

Update on my project .. I'm not using the wrx lights anymore. The right side projector was broken. The same Guy has 4 headlights however with a projector n each! Not sure of the vehicle but they look nice.. I will post pics next time I see them!

Yeah I'm doing 4 projectors and they are coming out of 2 vehicles wit stock hid projectors. Can't use the wrx anymore one side was broke from a wreck..
|
Agreed with getting both. Without projectors, those HID kits will melt the housing and have horrible glare
|
I vote for HID projectors.

All 4 came out of Toyota vehicles... hope I can get them to fit.. more to come! |
OK so here is an idea.. what do you think?
|
That should work. What are those things you used?
|
those look like pipe reducers, right? Looks cool...And is that the Lowe's lady laying down the tile on top of her cardboard shower?
|
R34s are pretty short height wise, I hope those work for you.
