    Wait.. so u replaced the orignal lenses and like the whole projector and stuff to a retro fit one like this? Like a new kit with the whole light assembly? 3": STi-R - Clear Lenses from The Retrofit Source

    and I see, really big difference in illumination right infront of the car and on the sides.

    I got these for the upper parking light (6K because it matches the low and high beams) and these for the side marker lights under the reflectors.

    The headlights fit perfectly onto the car. The LED bulbs I got were a little more difficult to correctly fit, but eventually I got them installed right. Not sure if this is because of the housing or the actual bulbs, as neither are stock.

    Here's the low and high beams in the black housing. I haven't adjusted the aim yet so this is just how they came.

    Love the color output but the cutoff leaves a lot to be desired. Was hoping it looked similar to this

    Lol, not fair. Razor sharp cutoffs are only possible with clear lenses. They'll be more diffuse with frosted lenses.
