You can buy mine..200$ plus shipping..includes 2 ballasts and 2 bulbs.
blackhoused lights with clear lenses and clear markers/reflector
TSX clear projectors
replica bmw E46 shrouds painted flat black
2)12" white CCFL tubes installed inside lower parking light spot

projectors alone are almost asking price. Look up my thread for them.

I have a set of retros from HID Illusions. They where $$$ but I thank they looked good to me.

RedRyder I hope your not talking about mine because I did not see all them problems in them. If you are talking about mine tell me if I should take a closer look at them.

Cutoff is a little sharper with the Morimotos. The cutoff flicker is also a little more colorful.
Morimotos are bi-xenon, TSX are not.
TSX beam width is very slightly wider on the TSX, depending on how they are mounted (how far the TSX projector sits in the reflector).
The Morimoto's cutoff line bows down slightly at the sides, but this can be fixed easily by doing the tape mod on the shield.
Beam intensity is the same.
Install is x76154 easier than TSX.

And a little extra edge, if you get the Morimoto H1's, the bulbs will usually be much cheaper to replace than D2S bulbs.
