If they are real TYC's then they should have the orange corner.

TYC headlights are DOT & SAE approved and therefore will always have the orange reflector

Yeah, If you are talking about TYCs they do have an orange insert. But there are some black projectors available with the clear sides.

i guess you would open it up the way you would a stock headlight and then pry off the amber turn signal...but then youd be left with an odd triangular-like hole. i guess if you have the skill and patience you can remake that piece with clear plexiglass or something...

retrofit DIY kinda.. You can see the pics of what, Unleaded did

IT LOOKS AMAZING! But, I wouldnt do it... Too scary

Imagine buying Audi tt projectors and hid bulbs > 500$ ? (ebay)
TYC Projectors 200$?

700$ on headlights, and ****ing them up :x

Notice how he cant aim them now... What if you did everything and they are aimed wrong? Uh OH!

TT projectors woud be easier to install than the A6 that unleaded used. TT projectors are much smaller than A6, wich means youd have to do only a small amount of dremeling, and you would also be able to rig something up to keep your adjustability.
