Projectors on a 98? (and does anyone have a pair they dont want?)

UnSungHero48 · July 27th, 2009, 12:38 PM

I was just wondering the opinions of everybody on projection headlights on our stangs body style (96-98). I was toying around with the idea of getting a pair made by sonar, clear lens with black interior housing and i guess it has halo rings that light up that euro blue. personally i cant decide whether or not it would look better or worse, being that my car is that metallic red with white racing stripes over the middle. Input i feel is needed from those who have them.

Also, is anyone selling a pair of these for cheap? or would consider trading them for a pair of stock headlights and marker lamps?

I would appreciate it!

Personally I don't think they look good. I met a guy with them in a 97 and they just don't appeal to me. They make the car look like a ricer and not American muscle. All up to you though. Good luck. I have the headlights with the black housing on my red 96 and got them off eBay for 120 shipped.

i had them and liked the halo rings but they werent bright at all, i constantly was using my brights, if u can use a hid kit on them, get them but if not dont!

that confused me, u have them but u dont like them? then why not revert back to your stocks, unless u pitched them? or we're u saying u were willing to give them up possibly?

but see i have been switchn back and forth between thinkin they'd be ok and thinkn they'd be horrible. My main reason is because i have stock replacements as it is, and they are continually causing problems. the first pair the reflectors fell out of them, and now this pair the drivers side treks up.

I don't have the black projectors I do however have smoked headlights. I like the smoked look, just not the projectors... That's what I was trying to say. Sorry for any confusion.

UnSungHero48 · July 27th, 2009, 10:46 PM

haha no problem man.

DejaBlue87 · July 27th, 2009, 10:50 PM

u lookin to sell ur smoked ones? post some pics

UnSungHero48 · July 29th, 2009, 05:55 PM

ok, i decided to not go with the projectors. might look into fog lights though.

330CubeGt · July 29th, 2009, 06:25 PM

I dont have a set but if i did i would throw them in the trash.

UnSungHero48 · July 29th, 2009, 11:23 PM

well i was thinking about customizing them if i did get them...I kinda was pondering taking them apart and spraying the inner housing of them to match my car color. sice i have some of that paint lying around here anyways. But o well, i scrapped the idea and am planning to stay stock with just some superwhites or something.

DejaBlue87 · July 29th, 2009, 11:44 PM

smoked headlights look best IMO. i dont like projectors

330CubeGt · July 29th, 2009, 11:48 PM

I have Stock Brand new Headlights and Clear corners.

Only thing i would Ever do is Stock Or Smoked.Smoked is my Fav but i don't want to put to much money into exterior mods.

You should look into a smoked set.

UnSungHero48 · July 29th, 2009, 11:51 PM

i might down the road, i just put in a divorced dual exhaust so im a lil low on cash. o well, im ok with that.

deedub97GT · July 30th, 2009, 12:37 AM

ihave halos and love it. they are sort of dim unless you line them up right. ill get some pictures tomaro. mine are smoked on a black car so it looks alright.

mmikeclass06 · July 30th, 2009, 12:39 AM

smoked is only way dude. just to push you over to the NO projector side. here is mine with smoked heads.

2002 BLK GT · July 30th, 2009, 03:50 AM

I agree on the smoked ones, clear ones look good except on the sun imo too flashy to me....

JiMi_DRiX · July 30th, 2009, 01:47 PM
