It might cost twice as much as drop-in HIDs, but the quality and performance is 10x better and it is also much safer for others on the road.
That is one of the main reasons, I feel like I'm blinding people all over the road lol. I will look more into this, Sall. Do you have a write up on your lights by chance?

Thank you for having common courtesy to feel mindful for the safety of other motorists.

This is the guide I followed to build mine. Like I said, you can use easier projectors too.
