i did a retro fit for my Bonneville, because the stock headlight has a good bit of glare and tons of hot spots…with a set of silverstars they were better than most headlights, but a Projector and HID kick major ass

also [www.vvme.com](http://www.vvme.com) is a very good place to get quality HID’s

here is what i ended up with. The Projectors are out of a Cadillac

these are in progress pics

the outer lense is not on

 ![http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f365/1993SLE4/2003%20ssei/Projector%20Headlights/projectors030.jpg](http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f365/1993SLE4/2003%20ssei/Projector%20Headlights/projectors030.jpg)

but the output dosent lie

 ![http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f365/1993SLE4/2003%20ssei/Projector%20Headlights/projectors042.jpg](http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f365/1993SLE4/2003%20ssei/Projector%20Headlights/projectors042.jpg)

in all honesty do a retro, of buy a set of aftermarket projector headlights

vvme sucks…i had 2 sets die on ppl that i order them for thru them…

they have no # to call them about issues or anything, you can only contact them thru email & it takes them awhile to respond back & trying to trouble shoot thru email blows

you also saw a b2 break the sound barrier over the south hills. I think you are full of shit. You make Blue look like a stand up guy.
