auction site projectors?
How many people have bought them so far? Can anyone comment on quality? Are they identical to ACA? I know they use halogen lens instead of HID lens. Do they still require grinding to make them fit?

I did the research recently on the forum by reading various threads and such. The installs seem pretty painless and everyone seems to love them. There are a few threads on install instructions too if you search for them.
1 seller sells with low HID's, 1 without and the price is different accordingly . Its not a big deal to pop in a HID yourself. I plan on re-using my ballasts and just getting H9 HID bulbs.
There are vendors who sell them on the forum too.

I have them and they appear to be identical. I believe they are made from the original tooling. (ACA is on the lens). I replaced the halogen bulbs with HIDs and all is good. I did the rib modification but in retrospect, I'm not convinced it was necessary with the H9 projector.
