That's right. In the pic, there is only 1 projector shining against the wall, which explains only 1 "Z" or notch.

lol JS2K, please dont feed the troll

he's obviously not a retrofitter, nor does he know anything about s2k headlights

yeah bro, take a picture from 2 feet from the wall. That'll really show how good projectors are! LOL

i'm done here

actually, if memory serves me right, the SC430 and S2000 projectors perform quite similar

the LS430 is the king of single xenon projectors though

I've had a TSX retro and then an AP1 retro. AP1 > all projectors in the same SIZE-CATEGORY

LS430s are huge

Argue as hard as you want, no matter what its a completely biased opinion you're trying to push to sell your own product, its unprofessional and you have yet to provide any physical reason as to why the shape and design is better. Its all been completely subjective to taste re-enforced by photo's you've controlled.

You're assuming these new headlights are cheap and have poor projectors because some other guys $85 civic headlights weren't any good. These are new, the manufacturer has the advantage of comparing all available HID projectors made up until this day and if he wanted to, he could make a perfect copy of the S2000 HID at no extra cost. Your argument is pointless until you buy a set and do a controlled side by side experiment.

same reason there arent many s2k aftermarket short shifters ya silly noob

It was more like 4-6 feet from a wall and its a very accurate way to take a photo. They are recently cleaned AP1 headlights with 4300K bulbs. I'd challenge anyone else to take a similar picture without a tripod and a 10 second exposure. If your goal is to sell accessories for the stock S2K headlights, obviously you're going to fabricate the worst photo's possible for the competitors and you're going to enhanse the appearance of the S2K headlights to bolster your argument.

The S2K projectors are fine and all, but I'd actually say the halogens on my mark IV jetta are better. And no its not just my S2K. My dad has an 04' and his are exactly the same. I actually passed a newer TSX on the highway on my way home today and thought of this thread, his headlights were actually illuminating OVER my beams from 20-30' behind me.

LOL seems like this Jordan guy is really liking those eBay piece of crap headlights.
Maybe you work for them?

those headlights are fail.
Lets see how long those LEDs will last before they burn out. O and don't forget that moisture/water will get in the headlights.

if you can't afford a OEM replacement headlight, do yourself a favor and sell your s2000, go buy a Civic or a car that will fit your budget incase your headlights (or any other parts) get damaged.

Jordan, me being a former ClubRSX member, would like to direct you there to check out the most popular projs used there by a member Todd, he's a retrofitter.

I'm not taking sides, but perhaps once you check out that site, you would know why s2ker's take better care of their projs than their balls
