Default projection lighting

Hey all,
so i recently put in some HID headlights and now want to do projection lights. i found some sellers on ebay for about $140 that i think im gonna go with. i have seen a few other threads and people seem to have some mixed feelings and if they are good. how do i know if what im getting is good quality? is any aftermarket projection headlight just gonna be a headache? this is a link to the one i am thinking of getting. .. thanks for the input guys. http://www.ebay.com/itm/181240612721...84.m1423.l2648

Those are projector headlights for halogen bulbs, not for HIDs, so they may or may not work properly.

Not sure, but the only way you'll be able to get some nice lighting out of HIDs is doing a proper HID projectors retrofit, which can be quite expensive.
