How are the spyder projectors to with? are they hard to work with on retrofit then the Depo's?

Are they better type of headlight than the Depo's?

Thank you all again for your help and input.

I've heard the Spyders(Sonars) are a pain to get open. As far as out-of-the-box, most say the depos are better. If you don't mind the look of the oem's, they might be the easiest to work with and more space.

It's depend how you like the look. I have both Spyder and Depo but I start with Spyder first thinking Depo will be my backup. After I'm done with Spyder and work on Depo with FX-R then sold it for my friend so I think the Spyder is much easy to work with. And of course the FX-R projector is far better then H1 projector. I'm planing to buy another set of Spyder to put the S2000 projector on since I just got one from Craigslist.

That is correct but it's a pain to put big projector like FX-R on and it require lots of trimming. But Spyder is very easy if using the H1 projector, it's like plug and play since you only need to remove the housing len.

Holy shit. I just noticed you have an LTZ. Those 06 Suburbans with the LTZ package are pretty damn rare. I wish I had one. And much props on the headlights. They look awesome!

I'm waiting for a few more parts to work on my S2000 projector with Spyder housing and if able to finish them I'll will let you have current set with same price I pay for the parts (projector and housing).

I'm really happy with the H1 & Spyder but after I saw S2000 retrofit drive by and I want them but I want it better so I'm thinking doing quad; S2000 on low and either H1 or fx-r on high.
