Are the TSX projectors that great? I mean, everyone seems to be using it. Besides it being "good," why choose those over other car's projectors?

My question is: what makes them so great?

yes they are great. good size of light projection, no light leeaking and the cutoff is great. The price is also pretty subtle compared to other prokectors.

Then you use it you will be amaze by the sharp cutoff and the wide projections the tsx is. But if you want something better get a S2000 it's similar in performance. There actually might be better ones... but these are the most popular. Japanese projectors have full enclosures meaning they can't leak like Bosch (BMW) projectors.

I have to admit I'm just learning about this stuff anyways. I always have to go back and refer to Maximus96 for reference. Here is a link http://conceptinmotion.numutant.net/forum20/viewtopic.php?t=308 of my project which is just starting. I'll try to document everything I do. Even my mistakes.

Yeah. Does Maximus still frequent the board? I know he sold his tC. Or something to that effect.

I'd like to know and see other projector pictures. Like the Bosch ones.

Family..pfft. Just kidding.

I'd like to give it try, but it's pretty darn scary. The most technical I got was changing the bulbs in the headlamps

Haha..You're saying "spare headlights" to someone who pretty much never has more than 500 dollars.

Well, keep us updated on your projector retrofitting!

i think their the 2nd best singe xenon projectors next to the s2k's. But those are alot harder to mess around with. You can find a good pair of TSX's for around $170.

I heard light output from that isn't the best, though. But I don't remember where I heard/read that from.
