Not bad at all for stock projectors. Get rid of the squirrel spotters and they'd be even better.

Those two squares where the light is spilling over the cutoff. There are open tabs on the projectors allowing light to come through to illuminate signs and whatnot. With halogen bulbs they're ok but with HIDs they can cause glare.

Hey Guys, were helping another FRS owner over on HID Planet workout his issues with the stock halogen when upgrading to HID's. Looking at the output and halogen projector style you might NOT be able to just push the squirrel finders closed, were waiting on pics of the actual projector since he's retrofitting his headlights. Also the new TRS XB35 H11 are being used in his setup so results vary depending on the bulb temp.

TRS also has a retroquick drop in replacement for the FRS now.

Confirmed, you wont be able to push the squirrel finders on the stock FRS projectors like the older style, it's blocked like the Camry projectors.
