Could you please elaborate the cons of using an aftermarket HID kit in a projector housing. I have read the article from Daniel Stern, but not sure if that 100% pertains to projector-type housings.

I dont know many cons

Some say it is a bit blinding but others say there are no issues at all.

not all halogen projectors are the same, the camry people have to plug up holes that were originally designed for shining read signs cause there is too much glare. i cant conffirm this with the mercedes ones till my kit arrives but it looks like not much effort is needed.
