LOL no way. The stock halogens dither or fizzle out much sooner that say my TL's. With my TL hybrids I can have my beam (upper step) completely parallel to the ground and shoot my cutoff over 1/8th mile long. The reason why I can shoot my beam further besides the fact its HID is because with a projector, you have a sharp cutoff so your able to aim in a way that no light above the cutoff will blind anyone. With reflectors, halogen or HID, the beam isn't nearly as controlled so it just scatters everywhere and can't emit that distance nearly as efficient or safe because it wold get into anyone and everyone's eyes.
yeah im aware of everything you said, the beam on the picture looks a lot longer, but just wanted to make sure, yeah obviously with a cutoff you can aim higher because you will have no glare at all. Man you gotta start taking orders again man, damn im eager to get them already, by the time your ready again you said after fall, i'll have the money for sure so then you can guide me the rest of the way. But one thing if I wanted to do TL's I dont have to buy the projectors right? I would just have to buy the lights only right? Also, after I place my order approximately how long would it take to complete them, I know I will have people in front of me and that it takes time, but its just a curiousity question.
