 alright guys, i know this has been asked many times before, i've done my searching/researching but i'm always stuck being unsure

around christmas i plan on getting projectors put on my tC

what I want are:
- angel eyes / halos
- any type of good looking projectors that wont break down on me right away
- something that is pretty easily HID compatible, cuz I will add those at the same time i put on the headlights


I don't want tte 08 projectors however ($ reasons)
I know cheap isnt the way to go, but im wanting to stay under $200 for the projectors

could you guys suggest some, with pictures if possible?

 if you can, save a bit longer so you can pick up the 08 heads. those are the best quality out there right now eventhough they don't have halos, it'll be better in the long run. there are headlights though on ebay that have what you're looking for but the cutoff isn't to great. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaym...ZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem those i think are pretty decent. you'll need to put some silicon around the edges before you install them so they don't fog up

 Personally, i wouldn't stress the projectors if that's all you want to spend. Get a set of HID's from operatic and order a set of halos from oznium. Between the two you still haven't spent 200 bucks. There's a reason that good projector setups cost a lot mopre then what you have to spend. If projectors is really what you want though, then save up your money, and get the oem ones. By the time you have what you need, oznium will have their halo kit for the 08's ready and your ish will be dead sexy!

 i asked a while back about led projector heads i think, and i was told they burn out too fast they are the same exact ones that NOPICHIC has i forgot to ask her about them but im sure she knows wat she is doing. but they were the exact ones i was looking at getting im just gonna go with 8000k HIDs

 hmm thanks both of you for the good input!

i'll start saving up for the OEM ones just to stay safe... i mean ofcourse i want my car to look nice as fast as i can, but i also want quality instead of cheap shit ya know lol

oznium is comming out with halos for hte 08? if so, then im deff leaning that way

however, i do like the style of the ones you showed me just now... i really think it looks nice, i would be willing to sacrifice some quality for that look; however, i dont want the LEDs to burn out in a few days to months... i'll look for and ask some people including nopichic thanks for the heads up

 haha I keep posting in my own thread but oh well

i saw some past posts from sqmk and some others who have these and it all sounds really good, i dont think id do the HID conversion if i got these because well, i havent seen anyone who has done so. and it seems bright enough for everyone

im wondering... if its the LEDs that go out... do you think they can simply be replaced somehow?? i dont mind baking and messing with the lights a lil

tell me what you think
