Looking for pics comparing OEM HID vs. retrofit.
I realize the OEM HIDs aren't the best out there. And I knew this going in when I purchased mine a few weeks ago. They are certainly better than the halogens but I really can't say I'm overly impressed. Maybe my expectations were too high.
Nevertheless, I am now strongly considering cutting open my old headlights and going the retrofit route. I know the retrofits will obviously be better than OEM but does anyone have any pictures comparing the two in the same environment?

Hi.
Apparently, those comparo shots do exist - over at HIDPlanet...

Here - I'll do half the work - here are EVOX-R's in OEM HID housings:

Thanks! I came across this link and it was exactly what I was looking for...

It has output shots for a bunch of different projectors, including the OEM ones, all in the same controlled environment so you can clearly see the differences between them. Now I am definitely convinced ditching the OEM for some FX-R projectors would be worth it.

Yeah - that got posted on here after I replied. Dang my luck, eh?
Great linky, that.
And - sounds like a plan. A HUGE amount of resources and many helpful fellers on here.
Have fun and best of luck, sir!
