01 TYC Projectors

Output = 7 = Better than stock, but not HID duh!
Style = 9 = I love the look of them
Install = 9 =Really simple, like i said, i had no problems, and did it in less than 20min
Fitment = 9 = Was a perfect fit, no probs

Overall = 9 = I love them, the look is cool, the cutoff was cool, the blue hue is great, all i have to do is align them now, thats where i ask whats the alignment supposed to look like. They only fog early in the morning, after all humidity gets to them. (i park outside)

Re: 01 TYC Projectors

Let me say the output on mine is worse than stock. But they add style, so I'm keeping them on till I retro them, in which place i'll enjoy my stockers.

Also the adjustment screws cant ALL be reached when installed- so your supposed to know how to aim them before you install them, which makes no sense to me.

Re: 01 TYC Projectors

When I aimed mine, I had the front bumper off so I had easy access to the bolts holding the headlight on. Parked 25 feet from a wall, marked points on the wall (tryin to find the DIY from way back when to help you out..), turned on lights, took headlight out, adjusted as necessary, bolt headlight back in, rinse and repeat as necessary. Then I repeated the process on the other headlight.

here's the DIY thread, in case you need it

Re: 01 TYC Projectors

^^ thats exactly what i did. But i only adjusted one side.. Like i kept one light bolted in place and i took one off adjusted, belted loosely in, then adjusted accordingly. Hey for the 2 screws in the back, is one just R<->L and the other U/\-\/D ??

Re: 01 TYC Projectors

I don't quite remember.. all i know about them is they aim diagonally (screw in, it'll move up and to the right, and unscrew will do the opposite, or something along the lines of that). the base of the (actual) projector housing is kinda square shaped and the aiming bolt (if i remember correct, there's only one) screws into one corner and the other corner is (for the lack of a better word) clipped in , but enough to use it as a fulcrum/pivot to allow them to aim

Re: 01 TYC Projectors

^ yeah the stockers dont fit- but it makes sense kuz the high and low beams are seperated in the tyc's so u dont need dual fil anyways.

Re: 01 TYC Projectors

yea h1 is the brightest halogen bulb. stock h4 is 1000 lumen, stock h1 is 1500 but the +50 version is 1800 per bulb so they are way brighter. looks like you got the older "good" tycs with the clear lens and colorful cutoff. the newer ones are terrible.
