Sunday, September 11, 2005 4:28 PM
thats right. i usually take sundays off from building projector headlights. but i have had my brother helping me to get caught up on orders, so today we took his headlights off of his '01 ford ranger edge and mounted some projectors and angel eyes. we'll be mounting them on the truck soon. ill take some pix then with before and afters. also ill wait till around 7:00 cali time to take pix of the angel eyes. i hope you guys and gals enjoy. on with the pix...

ahahah stop whoring the subject line with ALL CAPS

yeah that lights are cool; what kind of bulbs/ ballasts did you use?
The light output looks yellowish. Check my bi-xenon conversion. I
used AL Bosch ballasts/ Osram Xenarc bulbs from a Cadillac SRX.

oh yeah. those side markers are being shaved and replaced with
audi a3 repeaters.

here's my bi-xenon thread

no HID's here. these are only apc projectors with H1 bulbs. the "yellowish" light output to you would probably because rather than spending over 300.00 for a set of projectors and an HID kit, this project cost less than 80.00 with stock light output. HID's are over rated...IMO. but thanks for your info anyway.

sheesh ... so now we have to argue?

You could probably get a set of oem Philips bulbs/ ballasts on
ebay for 150-200usd ... AND YES ... they are worth every single
penny. I scored my ballasts/ bulbs NEW and dirt cheap. If you
go through all the trouble to build projectors with angle eyes
etc... than you should go that final step.

this isn't a pissing contest dude... sorry if I offended you when
I said your light output is yellowish. oem quality hids are NOT
overrated (only the aftermarket HID products are junk). Before
my hid install... I had to follow beaters on the highway to light
my path (my stock headlights were horrible); HIDs made my
night driving much safer (that isn't an opinion. that's a fact).

it wasnt an argument or a pissing contest till now. i dont understand why it had to be an argument in the first place. all you had to say was, "you can get used HID kits for 150.00 on ebay." you need to remember, i make these to customers specs. if they want an HID kit, they are more than welcome to purchase one. ive got customers who have wanted them, and i built them the way they wanted it. for this project, my brother did not want an HID kit. in his opinion, he can see just fine with out them. im sure if someone lives in the woods, hills, or in the middle of nowhere, HID's would be a great investment. but living in the city, i have plenty of light coming from my headlights and also from the streetlights. so, there for it is my opinion that they are overrated. if you cannot respect that, that is fine. but dont get upset because i dont share your opinion. if HID's are keeping your eyes on the road rather than the "beaters", great. believe me, i am happy for you and others that may share the road with you.
