Well for a single beam projector, it is one of the top performers last I looked into them but not as well as the ls430 projectors by any means but those are monstrous, been out of the HID scene for a bit and with new cars on the market come new projectors, but for comparing s2k and TL it's more so personal opinion, the TL is much larger then the S2k and is a Bixenon but i'll let you decide

Pics were not taken by me, all credit goes to JVX of HIDPlanet.com

S2K with TSX replica clear lens

TL w/ OEM E46 ZKW clear lens Low Beam

I should also state now that the 300ZX lens's i put in, after i put them in i found that they should have been spaced, which i did not do, I'm thinking on ordering up some FX replica clear lens's and just plopping those in here in the next month or two,

how many sets you have laying around?

 

[8urcivic]

sets (2)...prolly 6 sets.

i also have bulbs and ballast that ill sell with them, but wont sell separate.

 

[Gorveatt]

Hmm... If i don't go on a trip when i take time off work i may be interested in what you have to offer,

On a side note, i was never really happy with the output of my headlights, the lens's weren't performing to their full potential, the cutoff was very yellow as you can see in my signature and I know they could do better, so i took out my passenger headlight and am going to fiddle with it here after work, hopefully i can get it fixed up, i'll try and get some pictures for everyone.

 

[Daybid]

ahh sounds good ill definitly grab it when i get more cheddddduh..

its rx330 projectors with sti clear lens.. and no bulb // ballast? how much would it be with bulbs and ballast..
