Because you're asking about the projectors themselves, not so much the housings or what model they're going on.

The ones used in that retro are pretty good, nice wide beam with HIDs.

Looks like they didnt have access to a dremel and used the tooth saw on their leatherman.

I bet it looks sweet at night though
