OK. i'm lookin' to retrofit some projectors into sentra headlights (haloz)

which d2s projector should i go with?

audi a6 d2s projector (these projectors are held via 4 screws and i could use them to adjust the beam pattern so its nice n level n such)

or

bmw x5 d2s projectors (held by 2 screws, can adjust left to right but not up and down)

which has the best lighting?

neither.. those projectors wont fit well with the halos..

use D2S TSX Stanley projectors.. it has output of the S2000 headlights with the smallness of the audi a4/s4.

way better choice then the other ones.. and more abundant as well.

you can also use the DOT and ECE A4/S4 or the bmw E46 DOT and ECE versions as well.

the projectors i listed above are really really nice projectors.. wide beam pattern .. colorful cut off and good size for the retrofit.. dont forget to add the shrouds with them for a more oem look

i did a search on ebay for these TSX projectors. and they look massive!

^ it just looks like those A6 are a bit smaller. i say this only because the projector lens sticks out alittle farther and i would think it would fit the halo "channel" better.
please dont take this the wrong way, its just a query.
