If I were you I would retro-fit projectors in the stock housing. If you get them custom made, you can get the halo's too...

No problem Eddie. And btw... Welcome :)

Many on this forum have gone with the aftermarket ones and turns out they are really terribly built (TERRIBLE quality)... projectors are cheaply made, halos are cheaply made, and the whole housing in general is cheaply made.

Retro-fitting in stock housing is when you take your normal head light housing that you have now, and get the normal low beam (and/or high beam) cut out, then putting in your own shroud/projector. Hopefully Sumo or SoulSea (2 TYF members who have done this) will chime in and post some pics. Sumo did it himself, and Serge went to a custom light shop. Both will have lots of great info for you.

I just had my headlights retrofitted by Bjorn of CustomLightz and you will love the light output. Stay away from those aftermarket pieces of crap. Where are you located?

Don't you have an NBS though? The NNBS ones have been confirmed to be cheap/not good quality...

oracle halo's are the only way to go. lifetime warrenty. no easy to install, but if you take your time it isnt real hard.
