unfortunately, the projectors are the problem and it cant be fixed. they are just crappy design. you could always swap in a better projector tho by opening the light housings and just swapping it in. like an H7 halogen valeo for example will be nice and smooth. or if you feel adventurous, swap in a real hid projector and run them off of ballasts and d2s bulbs. but a good halogen projector will be fine too.

well, every aftermartet light ive seen has terrible output. so i mean the only choice is go back to oem light if you wanna see at night. otherwise you gotta take them apart and put some better projectors. can check www.hidplanet.com forums for more info and theyre always selling good projectors there for cheap.

Hey gearbox, how much did your retro end up costing in the end with the setup you went with? If its in your retro thread then dont worry about this.... I'll find it later.
