Please read about projector lights before purchasing them. The majority of people go BACK to stock because they do not light the road well without a HID kit installed.
thanks for info yea i read that while searching around the forums guess we will see because I really like how it looks.
 
I like the black projectors,but ive heard nothing but bad things about them around the forums so i dunno.But today I put on my 97 Eclipse front bumper on my Talon,along with 97-99 headlights,and damn it looks a hell of alot better.What a pain in the ass it is to get the lights out though..Not only did the bumper have to come off for the lights to come out,but even the bumper support underneath,and theres even a bolt behind the light near the fender that had to be removed.To be honest its not worth the hassle to change over to projectors.The style thats on your car looks nice now.If you do go about switching the lights though be prepared to cuss for a couple hours:D
 
I am looking at getting lights like that too, but not APC ones. I have had horrible luck with APC and if you ask me, they make cheap products.
Does anyone else know if they will fit a 95-96, cuz i know the bumpers are slightly different between the 2. Also , who else sells them besides APC and ebay?
 
if you really want them try going to the junkyard and yanking an hid system from a lexus or something. otherwise the night time will be very dark
 
I dunno about the Gen I/II APC projectors, but the light output from the halo projectors I have is fine, even better than stock, and they use H3 bulbs for the low beam. Check my gallery for pics, I'll try to get some of the beam pattern/light output.
 
well got mine have not installed it yet but cant wait to get these on they look really good!! will keep everyone updated.

Low beams stock are 9006 or HB4; Highs are 9005 or HB3; some of the aftermarket housings use H3 bulbs, which are what the 2G foglights uses, very old (but efficient and bright) halogen bulbs. You can get H3 up to 130 watt that I know of (55 W is standard), and maybe higher.
