Thoughts on projector head lights?
I am toying with the idea of projector head lights, ESPECIALLY after seeing Aruss's Range Rover head light conversion. I have seen another member on here who had some but I can't recall who it was, I do remember they looked good.
I like these ones as they have the black background on them:

What do you guys think, too ricer?

Yeah I figured that would be the general consensus...... I thought they were a little ricer as well but at the same time I kinda like them with the black background. The last thing I want to do is turn my beloved C43 into a rice burner. Thanks for the input, anyone know where to score some classier looking projectors for the W202???

Yeah, those black surround projectors look good initially, especially when they are not mounted on the car. But I saw something similar on a C36 that was for sale recently, and I almost vomitted. But I must admit that the ones on ARuss's wagon look very sharp. You said they're from a Range Rover? Please elaborate.

What about these headlights?

or these?

I am leaning towards the 2nd ones.... What is the weird piece at the bottom on the first ones, a turn signal?

^Those actually don't look half bad...but again, seeing them actually installed on the vehicle is the only way to make the final call.

They are a 2-Bulb housing, right? Where the Hi & Lo Beams share 1 bulb and the other bulb is for the Fogs? The wirings/plugs won't match my headlights since I have a 3-Bulb housing (1-bulb Hi, 1-bulb Lo & 1-bulb Fogs).

There not projectors they are more crystal clear style... i had projectors and got tired with them... because they didnt flow with a clear side lens.. These match better with a clear side lens. they use the factory 6 pin plug and it adds a marker light that you can wire up or not... ill get some pics now
