uh I believe those projectors are made for halogens anyway, most aftermarket projectors are made for halogens to imitate the look, it's purely cosmetic

Wait what? if they fog up inside like that then i shouldnt get it. and i dont think that the bmw headlight with non HID light bulbs would look cool. what would be the point of having them in the first place. Go big and spend alittle more, itll be worht it.

I have them. I had major fogging/cutoff issues with my first set and I sent them back and got a new set. I sealed the new set up with silicone before getting them installed and I have had no problems since. The cutoff in my new set is pretty good, too (I think that was just luck, though).

I would say dont get them. the buyer shouldnt have to do anything like that so that they work right and 99.9% of that ebay stuff is crap.

ok if u want real halos u shud buy the anzo's... they're CCFL halos not those LED halos those are flourescent halos much better lookin and just like the same price of those ebay ones....the only thing that makes it ugly for IMO is the line of LEDS on top, plus i think theres only the chrome ones but so far those are the best of the buck when it comes to halos...ans the eyelids are LEDs , which u can easily cover with BAT's eyelids...which u can match with the color on ur car....u can search it ...theres picture with cars with anzo's and that eyelid from BAT pretty cool....im thinking about it myself...when i get my tax....lol..

I got those but in chrome and i got them in HID's. Let me just say .. THEY SUCKKKKKKKKKK !!! they fog, the cutoff isnt all that great, but they do look cool. The halos and everything else is bomb diggity. And the brights work like a charm. But im really debating on whether or no i should go stock with HID. But really anything you do aftermarker to your headlights sucks. The Anzo Angel eyes blow out all the time.

But like i said there ok. And the problems can always be fixed.

That is the worst quote ever.

You do realize that you drive a FRONT WHEEL DRIVE car, right? That means no drifting.
