Looking for a reputable projector retrofitter

Greetings.

I am a fairly new member and I drive a 2004 civic ex automatic. Yes, I know automatics are horrible...

Anyways, I have digital slim ballast HIDs in my car already. I am wondering if anyone knows of a place that I can ship my headlights to so that I can have them PROFESSIONALLY retrofit projectors?

Also, I know that there are aftermarket headlights with projectors. For example, http://www.buyhalolights.com/product...52d-SpecD.html

These are decent headlights but I just do not like the oval loops on the headlight housing; on the driver headlight between the projector and the sidemarker...

Does anyone have these aftermarket headlights and do they have HID installed? How is the projector beam pattern with the HIDs? Are they too bright? I seem several cars with HIDs and they produce a disturbing glare and I have seen GMC with deep blue HIDs pulled over because of this excessive glare (it was a foggy day).

Thanks in advance. Any input and help is greatly appreciated.

Re: Looking for a reputable projector retrofitter

you want real hid projectors put in, not the junky ebay ones. and most retrofitters will only work with oem housing to put in a projector of your choice. its one of those things that costs quite a bit for labor but is possible to diy also. check hidplanet.com for info and links to retrofitters. hidillusionz.com is good.
