I had Nighthawk done my
HID with a Retrofit Projector last week. He did a great job. Looks OEM. I am very happy with it. =)
Parts used:
- a clear lensed FXR bixenon projectors with color modification
- philips 85122+ d2s 4300k color bulbs
- apollo shrouds
The light is bright and yellowish in color. The output is wide - good for 3 to 4 lanes - with a sharp blue outline. No glare at all to incoming traffic. Yay!
Before that, I was using a 6000k hid that was just installed directly into my lamp. While it was bright white, the light output was going everywhere and not directed. I hated that the bright white light does not mix well with the usual yellowish light of the other cars - it was distracting both to me and the other drivers. I had to angle the light low to avoid glare to incoming drivers causing the throw of the light to be so short that I couldn't dive safely on the highway. During the rainy months, the white light was reflecting off the rain drops that I can't see the road much. I was actually contemplating to change back to the oem Jazz lamp until I saw nighthawk's post a few pages back on a retrofit projector. I am now a happy camper.
