will they fit in place of the halogen projector? that was my idea

and if you do happen to take them apart can you look and see where the 3rd mounting point for the adjustible reflector piece (is there a name for this thing) is?

I would think they would fit if not I will put them in my wifes headlights when I do her projector retrofit

funny thing you mentioned cut-off, but what exactly used to cut-off--the projection from the headlight? The only problem (which irritates the shit out of me) is the cut-off of the turn signal which a simple little soft knock to the area fixes it.

That's actually pretty decent!

Wish there was a way to fix my e-code lenses from having that stupid cut-off dry.gif

The metal piece in the middle creates the cutoff:




And turn signals have cut-offs? huh.gif

lol, i think he's talking about "cut out" as in it just stops working randomly from time to time. otherwise there's no way his post makes any sense
