I am looking for a projector style housing to replace my old style frosties.
Has anyone tried these? Any good? Other recommendations?

The ballast mounts to the bottom.

I would just buy the projectors w/o the hid addition. It shouldnt cost more than 250 if that. You can get an HID kit from a sponsor here for like 35. I have a set like that from eagle eye. I bought that brand because it has more room in the housing for me to do my FX-R retrofit. But if you dont plan on retrofitting then get the Depo brand.

I bought some cheap projectors from eBay. They came in with unattached (broken) projectors. They sent a second pair for free, but those broke too.


Hopefully the same doesn't happen to you!

i have the same type but I went with digital ballast to avoid flickering. I also had the dealer do the xenon=present option.

The Depos run about $220 plus $40 more for shipping. I liked the posted ones for two reasons... the mount for the ballast, and the turn signal design. Oh yeah, it came with the chromed amber turn bulbs too.

What was the brand & sellers name so I can avoid them.
Thanks.

Mine has the same turn signal design and I paid less than 200 for it maybe like 175 shipped for it. I mounted my ballast underneath on the frame. its hiddens so the dealer doesnt notice it. Just make sure they are depos or eagle eye brand and they should be ok.

"x3racing" was the seller name. They were very friendly, it's just, both pairs came in broken! Shipping these days..

Where did you get them? Link? I only see them for about $250 and up for Depos.

hcoronado

I found the depos for $175 as well. just keep looking, they are out there.

Since you know of a place, would you care to share where you got yours?

Also, is DDM still the place to get the light kit? How about TspNY in the vendors section?
I assume if I get the error code eliminators I will not need to set the xenon=present.

Thank you!
The first one you listed is interesting at only $215
The second one is $250 like all the rest.
I see these are Eagle Eye. Just as good as Depo's?

I was searching for c class projectors ... W203 makes more sense like you searched.

I have eagle eyes and I'm fine with them. I bought this brand because I plan to retrofit my FX-R projectors on them. The eagle eye have more room in the housing to do a retrofit.
