only ones that we can use are overseas and cost over 1000 so basically NO.

next time do a SEARCH.

i dont think we'll ever get them made=( They have forgotten about lancers. I swear, every other f*ckin japanese made import has projector headlights, HONDA, omg, they get everything. yeah i'm complaining. Our car is much sicker than a civic, look at our history of evolutions.

i hear ya loud and clear, the only thing i have seen anywhere near close is those black housings on road race. we definently got the shaft on the lights guys. but still, lights or no lights, we are definently one of the most looked @ imports on the market.

The Lancer doesnt have a history of anything besides being a popular rental car.

It's not an Evo.

theres a website called "retrohid.com" i believe. i went there, and this guy does like custom headlight jobs, inserting projector lenses in stock headlights - although he told me he could not make the housing, he can put a projector in part of your headlight,its expensive though. u'll spend more money, MUCH more money gettin him to do a custom job, than u would paying for black housing headlamps or assuming someone will produce projectors for us - more than they would charge. making a long story short. .it'll be around $500 or something.
PS: oh and apparently this other website i found that "claimed" to sell projectors, said they stop making/selling them, cause there wasn't a "high enough demand" for them. DUDE> everyone who has a lancer wants projector lamps. am i right? or what.

thast who i'm talking about. THe company website i viewed, said that OBX made the projectors, but stopped producing them, b/c there was a lack of demand. Lack of demand my ***, i know theres probably atleast 200 people on this site atleast that would pay for projectors . It's not fair.
