they aren't projectors. The housings are poop with crap sauce, and the reflectors are junk too.

Pass with all the gas you have.

Good theory, poor execution, as is the case with all non-pop up lights.

Most NPU seem to have issues in either the lens cracking, or they look like frog eyes.These really do look awesome. I don't know about the long term looks, issues etc, but I'd sure like to know more about them. Nicest ones I've ever seen.
