so...these things claim to be projectors, yet i don't see an actual projector housing. is the cut-off as sharp as a projector?

I think they use the term projector to get your attention, but they are in no way projector lights.

damn those look real nice.. how did you "dial" them down

I used the adjustment screws on the front of the headlight bezel. As far as it being a projector, it's not. But I really don't get too many issues with light scattering, as some may have said.

I basically just went to a dark area with a level ground and a wall. I parked 10'-15' away and began adjusting it with the screw driver. After a few runs through the mountain side, highway, and streets, I readjusted it a bit to widen the light a bit. I'm extremely happy with the results and ease of use.

i have the wisesport/ebay head lights also. they are fine with some silverstars in there but i tryed it with my hid kit and it wasnt too good. light scattered everywhere and with the hid it was blinding, with regular bulbs it doesnt hurt as much.

also after i took out the hid i took out the reflectors inside the housing, just a screw that holds it in. i figured that the silverstar already had the end capped off.

Did you notice an improvement when you took off the reflectors?
