Finally got my Bi-xenon projectors from radioflyer and I have to say, they were worth every penny! Install took a few hours but anyone can do it very easily. I had the same type of projectors when I did yhe retrofit on my Camaro and they're super bright and have a great cutoff. If anyone is on the fence about these...DO IT! Pics are before, after, and then with the highbeams on up against a conrete wall from 30 or 40 feet away

Congrats! Looking good. This is something I plan to do, probably next winter. I did interior stuff this winter. Too Corvette poor to do now.

I put mine in late fall and only got to use them a couple of times before winter. They are a huge improvement over stock. Very happy with the product and George's service.

That's a huge difference in the lighting levels in those pics. Looks like a very good upgrade to the car.

True! My only complaint is that the cutoff is so good that I can now see the headlights shake a little when going over bumps. Nothing bad about your kit, just a part of having 12 yr old pop up headlights i guess

It takes some getting used to. Modern luxury cars use an auto-leveling system which while possible is not cheap and would be prohibitively expensive to engineer on pop up headlights

When i first drove my 2010 BMW 328i at night, the autoleveling and angle adjusting with the steering scared the hell out of me haha

Mine are sitting right behind me. LOL

Looking forward to installing them-most likely next weekend with the help of a local member that already has them installed.
