HID projector retrofit
this is my write-up from last year of my retrofit, scroll down the page a bit to see the pictures.
overall I am happy with the results, i use these along with driving lights in the bumper for plenty of light and no, I do not have glare or blind oncoming traffic. the projectors are aimed the same as the halogen housings and the cutoff does not allow any light above that. I have about $200 in them with everything

I see you have a 2003 D2. I have had my HID retrofits installed installed in my 03 D2 for over 3 years now. The way our headlamps are setup do not blind drivers, provide a good spread and does not scatter. On a pre 2003 D2 I can definitely see those headlamps providing scattered lights when retrofits HID are installed. I use a 4300k bulb, in my opinion 4300-6000k is close to stock on most cars, the ricers are using 10+k and that is plain stupid not to mention useless in the rain. I say go for it, you won't regret it.

And believe me, even Down Under, Joe Schmoe knows that the D2's didn't come with HID's, took some fast talking to avoid a hefty fine at a breath testing station because of the HID's I had fitted at that time.

It's a common misconception that beam cutoff is what it's all about.
