Even if you already have HID, you'll need to pick up a pair of bulbs that will fit the new lights.

Anzo or TYC put out the best light pattern, but it's still nothing special.

I never heard of anzo, TYC is pretty good for what it is. For a plug and play projector, its decent. But not like a retro. I plan on either converting mine with valeo projectors or just buying some depo oem lights and starting all over again.

Leave the halos with the Bimmers.

Any, and all halo projectors that you buy on eBay are ****. Don't let anyone tell you any different.

Don't waste your money. If you want projectors, save for a retro.

I thought my TYCs were good and then after a while the cutoff would get all messed up the more I adjusted the projectors and I trashed them for a real retrofit.

I wouldn't BS anybody in here about the lights, my stock lights were horrible even with silver star lamps. I was very pleased with the out put of these projectors. lowbeam is good high beam is exceptional. The fit of these lights did suck, was not a simple install. It took a couple hours of fitting and modifying the factory air box intake, on that note they sucked.

unless your stock was "depo" stock style.
or your stock was all hazed and didnt put out any light in front of you.

almost all, if not all, members will say that egay halo/projectors are waste of money, because stock puts out far better light output and light pattern. this is not opinion; it is solid fact. when i had those so called "halo" headlight, they were like-new condition. my stocks were also in very good condition.

if you must have aftermarket headlight (not going custom), then id say TYC is the way to go. but read my post carefully, i never said TYC is any better than stock. TYC is do-able.
