Projector retrofit or Depo Headlights w/ HID, I did Led in my last truck with halogen clear lenses, I took them out because although they were brighter, the throw of the light was terribly scattered, and I was blinding on coming traffic, so this time I did it at least semi-right, and I couldn't be happier

Hid's with a real retrofit. Depo's are an improvement over halogens, but a real hid projector outshines all. I used morimoto mini h1 7.0 projectors, 35w XB35 ballast and bulbs (the entry level/noob setup). It needs some bulb shimming to get rid of the curve, but its far better than my buddies E60 M5 hid's and holds it own with the new audi's and mercedes.

Its a fun project if you like building things, but its a lot of trial by error and tweaking with things. Its also highly addictive, not even 6 months and I already want to redo my setup and go bigger.
