hid projectors also evenly distribute the light. i wonder if you can run any d2s bulb/ballast with an hid projector. as long as it's 9004?

I'm telling you ......just get the SSL package.....

The leather isn't slippery....the seats hold you in just fine....do a search it has been discussed several times......If you are dead set on cloth...I'm sure you could find someone more than willing to trade with you.

The moon roof totally kicks ****....women love it.....and I doubt you are ever gonna notice the difference in weight.

My factory HIDs look just like the second picture......WAY BETTER THAN ANY EBAY CRAP......you can see from the first pic that its not nearly the same. Better than halogen but not even close to stock. Lots of blinding spray on those other ones.

I have HIDs in my 05 w/o SSl and they have a perfect cutoff line.

I have converted my Base 05 GSR to use the 03-04-MR headlamps, just have to rewire everything. i haven't hooked up the leveler yet or the fog lights because i still need the switches. Spent about $800 total for the conversion including HIDs and used headlamps.
