    they look good. but from what i can tell, they look like a TL retrofit. i think i like your old set better..looks wise ;). these may have better output though.

    dont even compare them to a TL retro until you see the beam shots...all retro's can look like a TL retro, a FX-R retro or a TSX retro as they are all projectors and look pretty much the same form wise.

    i said "looks wise", as in cosmetically. in no way did i compare their beam pattern to a TL retrofit.
    his last set did not look like a TL retro which is why i liked them so much.

    ^ i personally think they look like an FX35 retro...as FX35s are 2.5" and TLs are actually 3" projectors...;)

    yosh2000, I think he was referring to how the projector was mounted in a headlight... not so much as in performing similarly.

    Almost all projectors can look the same with the same shroud ;)

    No, I've been talking to him, but I think we're both really busy, and haven't gotten very far. Also looking at other options, and I have a few other things on my plate at the moment.
