Re: Halo projector ?

You're lucky- the RSX version goes for over 300.

Re: Halo projector ?

I don't recommended anyone change their headlight to aftermarket projector light. Because the quality for this kinda projector headlight is very SUCK. You can't see the road when you driving at night. It is only for style & looking.... People see your car is bright as hell, but you can't see the road. If you really want to go w/ the projedtor, you might want to put a fog light on also...

You can see the road if you have the PIAA super plazma gt-x bulbs or whatever....those things are amazing...

but yes, a good set of foglights is worth it.

hey I have the halo projector lights...I have a HID system in there too..I can see the road fine...not as good as the stock..along with other problems. On some of the aftermarket projectors, especially the Halo ones which I have, there are no adjustment knobs to raise/lower the beam; so I have one beam higher than the other...when ever I have time, I am going to put my HIDS in my stock headlamps and not worry about it...but it is a waste of money...but they do look good. haha

You said you want a good set of projectors and you say that there are times you can't see the road. Check out this place Ii purchased a set for my car and WOW I CAN SEE PERFECTLY. I cast a penny but the upgrade was tremendous!!!! I waited 3 weeks for mine but the wait was worth it. What I did was bought a set of TYC Projectors and they lookd good as other have commented, give props to them, can't see shit unless you are oh 5 feet away from hitting something in the road. Anyway, I took them out put the OE back in, AHHH I saw the light, hahah well i contacted www.illusion-lighting.com/ went to Products clicked on more info for the Headlamp retrofit with ECE spec HID / xenon projectors, saw what they would do. Then I clicked on Gallery then clicked on the the ECE Spec/HID section found a 1998 Honda Accord and saw the output of them and nutted and said that is what i want and thats what i got.

They replaced the projector completely and guess what projector was used.................... That of an S2000 so i get the Wicked cool cut off line. and I have passed my state inspection here in TX and they would not let me pass with an aftermarker HID kit in the OE headlamp, so i stuck some shitty silverstars in to pass and put the HID bulbs back in . But now i passed withthe New TYC/Illusion Lighting retrofit with flying colors and NO hassel from the local cops or DPS. Infact they look like OEM to that of a BMW/S2000 light output and look. CUDOS ILLUSION!

Re: Halo projector ?

I just paid $165.98 for projector headlights for my 88 Crx on Ebay. The projectors are bright as hell. I can see peoples faces in their rearview and sideview mirrors. The first night cars kept moving out of my way, it was nice for a change. They project out in a triangle beam. The high beams are really bright also. I have fog lights and it is almost overkill. I am happy with being able to see the road better than any bulb I tried with my stock lights. I guess I got lucky, but my projector lights are really nice and bright. They have a very focused and tight beam, maybe adjustment is key. A body shop did mine when they replaced my bumper.
