PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS? Anybody got'em?
I saw some projector headlights on Ebay for the C43. They are 175 plus 55 shipping. Has anyone installed these on their C43? I think they would look great.

I have to agree with Tom on this one...putting projector headlights on a C43 would ruin the look of the car...its a very classic looking car and the headlights are a big part of keeping the 'classic' look. projectors on the car would just look weird in my opinion.

Some of the projectors do look bad (ricey) but these don't look that bad. Maybe someone can photoshop them in to see how they would look.

you have to be careful, like these guys said, when they're actually on the car they look cheap and stupid.
i really wanted projectors, so i made some myself. i didn't go with the ebay ones because they change the entire shape of the housings inside. i went with something that sort of looked like the original light, and then retro's projectors into the housing. they still look a little too different from stock to me, but a lot better than the ones with projectors already in the housing. also, keep in mind that the projectors that come in these lights are for halogen bulbs, not HID's...

Those look great my man. I would like some that looked just like yours but I am sure that I would come out with something that didnt look as good so I am not going to try.
Mad props on your though, they look great!!
