Default Projector Headlights/ HID

I need help. I can't see at night in my stang with the Silvania Superstar bulbs that i have bought. Has any one done a Projector headlight swap? Will it help? Has anyone bought the entire HID conversion kit with the transformer an all? does that help?

nope I've been researching the projecors though and it seems to me they are just a retainer the bulb fits in and has it's own lense. I just wanna know that is the Projector goin to be bright enough or should i go with the stock lights and a true HID conversion kit.

This may be dumb of me to ask, but how clear are ur lenses. Because I have silverstars in my stang with some pretty nast oxidized lenses and I can see really good. And I know it not my eyse cause i have bad vison. silverstars are pretty close to Hid's.

I have the projectors and they are not going to make anything brighter. Im actually selling them because im getting some smoked headlights. They do look pretty cool, but dont expect them to make it brighter...

On the side of this site where the sponsors are they have the HID's in the projectors and like it said off of Ebay, they don't fit and you have to modify the housing. I was thinking about either doing that or doing my stock lights with the HID conversion with 10000K bulbs. That seems the best.

Have you considered just enhancing your existing lighting by adding on some driving lights?

I installed the silverstar bulbs onto my '02 GT & am generally happy with the light output..

Supprisingly enough Silverstars didn't help and they are alligned right. I'm sure what the deal is considering my lenses are clean. And i had silverstars on my old 3.2 TL and they were bright. And I have driven plenty of mustangs and mine is really the only one i have trouble seeing with.
