i had the ebay diamond cut ones on my 87 and they sucked at night driving with street lights, but on the back roads they were great but just for some reason with street lights just killed the ability to shine the road.

 

The diamond cut 200 mm lamps seem to generally suck, but I have not compared the smoked or "projector" style diamond cuts.

It appears that the projector style is nothing more than a magnifiying glass in front of the light source so I can't imagine it would be any good for anything but low beams and even then questionable.

If you buy a pair you can send them to me to test and I can show the differences.

 

i think i may pick up a set of the projector style and take some pics of the stock versus the projector, the smoked ones are most likely even worse than the diamond cut ones.

 

They might not be bad with a true HID lamp in them
