Hey I know this has been asked a lot but I couldn't find a collection of pictures of cars with this. Could all you guys with 95-96 Eclipses or 95-98 Talons post your pics if you have 97-99 lights on them? (Note - not the full bumper conversion, just the headlights) Because my lights are fogged to hell - no cleaning works - I need new headlights, and 97-99 Projectors are enticing and cheap. Thanks!

If you haven't already guessed - this is mainly because I want to see how noticeable the gap is...
 
Check my gallery, the pics of the halos are what you wanna see, though you may not be able to see the gap that well.

FourG63 97GST: that may have been true about the GenI projectors, but I remember reading the GenII(dual projectors) were a bit better, and I know for a fact(considering I have them) that that halo projectors have better light placement and output than stock, even with H3 bulbs as low beams.
 
Yea I was mainly interested in the little GAP. To me it doesnt seem like that big a deal... And i did read that the newest projectors are actually supposed to be better than stock as spidey said. Any more pics guys? Especially of the gap!
 
Well regardless of whos car that is (and its damn nice) it doesn't help with my question. But yea thanks dsmturboawd - that is rather clear - it wasnt loading up before.

defiant, thats looks like a ebay body kit indended for a 97-99, but it was made badly and discarded on ebay soo...

i laugh at the owner.
Beats me, just one of the pictures I had floating around. On a dead hard drive (backup? what backup?) I have a couple others using a stock bumper, and it's pretty much the same gap.
 
dsmturboawd's car looks fine, that gap doesnt seem like a big deal at all. Still I think more pics would be nice because I too am putting these lights on with my smiley bumper.
 
I agree - anyone have some close up clear ones? I don't want to appear ungrateful - just a little clearer pic before i spend over 200 on these lights. Thanks!

I don't know what Projectors use H3 Bulbs but I bought my projectors off of eBay and they use the stock 9005/9006 bulbs (or whatever they are I forget right now). But anyway I don't have any issues with my projectors not being bright enough.

Here's a pic of them....
