Well I just finished reading this entire thread and I'm ready to retro my ride! Will start buying stuff tonight. I'm thinking Audi TT projectors but may change my mind if others have better recommendations for the price.

You haven't done enough research, go to HIDPlanet.com & learn some more about retrofits because Audi TT projectors suck. There are much much better projectors out there that are compatible with accord headlights, but they depend on your budget.

Hell, no one in this club even has Audi TT projectors installed lol. The only Audi projector I've seen was an Audi A6 projector. If you're gonna do it, do it right the first time. Go for either a pair of S2K or you could go with TFX.

OK, back to the research thing... I appreciate the head's up. Oh, and budget is a concern btw, but performance is most important. I space out my purchases a bit if I have to, but the whole reason I want to go retro is:
1.) I've been warned the aftermarket projectors (less TYC maybe) suck, and
2.) It's cool and original and will let me make the light they way I want it :)

After I read the whole thread I got to thinking about that ;)

Thanks I'll look into those. I know the S2K's rock but they're a little expensive right now. I'll check into the TFX's, haven't seen those yet.
