Wow havent seen those in a while. they are great projectors. the only thing is that they are made of plastic so u have to be careful with them, but that makes them easy to modify if needed. as far as the price its close to what i would sell it all for anyways. if it goes over $300 then im cheaper. the only prob is most of my stuff is reserved already so i have nothing else to offer at this time except bulbs

dr2 and d2s are same thing cept d2r is notched and has black coating on it blocking some light. it is used for refelctor xenon systems like the 2nd gen cl.

also x5 does fit. very tightly/. i put those in outlaws cl. ill try to find pics

i hope this will be the last question before bidding on this.

how can i connect power source and ballast for this

i do not see any wire coming out except for bulb.

can i just connect 9006 plug into it?

thank you

technically u can just plug ur 9006 ends into them and it will work. personally i would buy some ends from suvlights.com and create your won wiring harness with relay. $30 is cheap insurance to elimante any possibility of damage to any of th eoem circuits or switches. it has been debated whether or not its needed but like a said
430 is cheap insurance.

some things to keep in mind
- doesn ur alarm flash ur headlamps?
-will flashing ur highs activate ur lows?

u cannot have the xenon system flashing on and off. ull ruin it.

Sorry for being off topic....


Hey VXCL, Can you get me a good H1 bulbs and ballast setup? Like 8000k? I bought the projo's from a member (Joey, still love em. if you ever sell the new ones your making let me know lol) but they are more or less just OEM spec H1 55W bulbs. Need to add some blueness in!

I have a6 projectors in my housings. I love them, and i didn't use any trim, and i still think that they look clean. I didn't use any aftermarket or replacement wiring with my retrofit unlike VXCL. I haven't had any problems with them and i have had them installed for over a year.

if you can get me projectors, that will be great.

i try to get it from ebay but i can't fully trust them except if they have 50 good feedback.

let's me know when you think you can get a set.

when i driving and seeing Audi or BMW goes opposite direction, I notice that Audi's hid changes color by angle that you are looking at. BMW doe not do this.

is this true?
