    Yeah might post them. No clue what to ask for them. No way I am getting back what is into them. As long as I can recoup some of my pain. I may pop them in just to see. All I've done is just held them up to it

    What/how did you paint your grille surround?

    I made the comment in your other thread about maybe cutting the guy some slack, since your original retrofitter abandoned his own work.
    This does not look like professional work. Sorry to see it went this way.

    those 2nd gens look pretty bad ass,hopefully the low beam projector is much better quality and the led strip is brighter. I had the 1st gens on my truck they sucked even with hids in the low beam. have my stock headlights back in.

    Question for the Thread which comes up a lot, but as an old Tanker who can't concentrate with a few beers, and then after a few beers forgets what he is trying to concentrate for, I am going to ask it again anyway....
    Spyder projectors for the 2nd Gen suck everyone knows that. I have pair and the second projector bulb finally went out. Want to replace with a nice upgrade but want something that is easy to put into place. Does anyone know of a good solution that will put out great light that won't require me cutting something and almost assuredly electrocuting myself?
    I was told 2 options but do not know if they are PNP or easy to replace?...

    1. H1 Profile Peak LED bulb replacement
    2. Morimoto H1 HID kit

    I have the projectors in the link below and before you say it i know that tinted lights kill the output, but both projector bulbs are out now and want a high output replacement. Thanks fellas.

    Are you running them in projectors? I was going back and forth with tech support and they seem to think they will fit under the dust cover and work well in the new Spyder's. How is the light output?
