Default Any Info on these projectors?

I ran a quick search that yielded no results. Does anybody know anything about the quality/look of these projectors? I haven't seen them posted on here before. What do you all think of them?

Those projectors are not worth $209...more like $50. DO NOT get them. The cutoff is in the shape of a "V" and it can't be fixed (unless you put better projectors in). The people that do have them on their tC regret ever purchasing them. Besides cutoff issues, LEDs burning out right away, angel eyes burning out right away, condensation problems, and a company that won't fix a faulty product...sure they're good! So far the best options for projectors are a retro-fit, Umnitzas headlights (January 07), or Anzos Headlights!

im gonna start off this post by saying you wont find TSX or BMW or VW quality projectors premade for a scion, you need to retrofit for that.....just needed to clarify

yea those projectors dont look like they are great quality...anyways

i have the jlevi projectors, i really like them, and they are cheap....the cutoff isnt straight im warning you, its modeled exactly the stock headlight beam except with a cutoff feel and some color at the border of it. Some people said they had condensation problems; however, my headlights were baked and resealed so that this wouldnt happen....the angel eyes aren't the brightest buy they suffice and the fitment is great...there is a way 2 fix the slanted cutoff, but you have to open up the headlight and the projector and fix the metal thing theres a DIY somewhere around here........but anyways here are some pictures of the Jlevi projectors in my car...













AND HERE ARE SOME PICTURES FROM SOMEBODY ELSE'S CAR I FORGOT WHO OWNS IT

You could always cover the LEDs in the top with vinyl or C/F...

I bought a pair of these to do a tsx retro to, and the projectors are actualy steped just like a high end projector, how well they work I dont know for sure. There are alot of gaps in the sealant and stupid little holes to be pluged but not bad really.

The halos are led's and are quite brite really (if you are into halos) the over all quality is ok at best, but then I only paid 170 shipped 3 day so... you get what you pay for really.

Umnitzas headlights look like they'll be pushed further back!...YAY!
