[QUOTE="KPOD, post: 789706, member: 13615"] Hey all, first post here on the forums so go easy :sad5: Right now I have smoked cobra headlights on my 96 coupe. However the lights just aren't bright enough so I've decided to go back to clear headlights. I'm pretty sure since I'm buying new headlights I'll go with a HID setup. The problem I'm seeing however is it's not recommend to put HID in a halogen housing. That means I have to get a projector headlight setup, and every projector headlight I've seen in a Mustang makes it look ricer :violent1: Now, I really like these lights ([url]http://www.americanmuscle.com/9498-chrome-headlights-amber.html[/url]) but I've had issues in the past getting them correctly aligned and if at all possible I'd prefer a one-piece headlight (both headlight and blinker together). So I guess my questions are these. 1.) Do I have to use projector lights with a HID setup? 2.) If so, does anyone know of any headlights that won't make the car look ricer? 3.) Are there any chrome/crystal halogen lights that are a one-piece setup? 4.) If getting projectors that aren't ricer looking means getting a two-piece setup, does anyone have opinions about these? [url]http://www.octanemotorsports.com/Lighting-Head-/-Tail-Lights/c1976/p15250/94-98-95-96-97-Ford-Mustang-Projector-Headlights-Chrome/product_info.html#googlebase[/url] I really like the way this car looks ([url]http://www.stangmods.com/PhotoGallery.asp?ProductCode=00068[/url]), is that HID setup with a halogen housing or projector? Thanks [/QUOTE]
