2G Best HID projector headlights for a 98 Eagle Talon

[jjaycxj]

I just bought a 98 TSi AWD with 108k, the first thing I wanna do is a projector upgrade and I would like to know the best company that makes projectors for the 98 Eagle Talon?

I've seen them on Amazon but IDK if those are good quality. Does anyone have a set of TRUE projectors with angel eyes in their 2g Talon?

Your input would be greatly apperciated as I would like to do this ASAP

Thanks

Welcome, but first and foremost.. repair all necessary things and do some maintenance first, replace belts and anything that probably has never been done.


As for Aftermarket projectors Do not waste your money, you ll pay 160+ and will not get the quality you deserve.

Send your stock OEM headlights out and get retro fits. I believe there is a vendor or free lancer person(s) on this site that can do the retro's for a very reasonable price. You will get the proper projector cut off line and Most importantly Great Visibility!

Can't remember the person off the top of my head I will double check later and get back to you.

Yeah I just blew 200 bucks on ebay for Dual halo projectors with an HID kit. The HID kit was an extra 50 dollars, it didn't work.. The headlight project decent, but on a wall it projects the image of a pumpkin for some reason. They're all over the place, one points straight up the other straight down. The halos have like 2 LEDs in them each, so they're dim. Overall, it wasn't worth it at all, but they look decent.

Thanks for such a detailed reply and yes I did change the timing belt thremastat oil change coolant flush spark plugs . I figured all the ones on amazon were not good which sucks thiers is no great aftermarket application. If you could find it out will be great and also the talon is my dd so turnaround on the headlights is key. So when you get a chance if you can find out who it is or which out of the crappy after market projectors is best ### I can't deal with stock anymore!!!!

I used the search on the forum and someone recommended a site called turbo metal projectors? Have you ever heard of these and if so are they decent? Il post a link Mitsubishi Eclipse 97-99 CCFL Halo Projector Headlights Chrome
Do these look decent?

HID retro is the only way for good results.
Check out my thread for some details - http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/app...381573-hid-retro-number-3-2ga-headlights.html

The HID kit is an extra 100 so you're looking at 320ish and whatever shipping is. Plus those look about ebay quality so you'll see a poor projection, hard installation, and minor adjust-ability.

I know this thread is old but as for those turbo metal ones if they are eclipse headlights will they fit on the talon? I know it might be a dumb question but I wanna make sure

Do you have pictures of the process?

I know this won’t be popular but it needs said. The majority/all aftermarket HID’s blind other drivers making them dangerous. My dad can not safely drive at night because of this, which is not cool.

I don’t. Low beams are easy. High beams are difficult due to lack of depth.

Output shot is just one side low beams only.

Is there anyone out there that's reputable that does retrofitting? I remember there was a vendor years ago, but I can't find any info now.
