Has anyone bought or heard anything about these new CCFL projectors?
I was browsing through Ebay the other day & saw these new Projectors. The Halos are supposed to be 3x brighter than the regular ones. Has anyone bought & installed these yet?

lol i thought they looked better...

the blinker is actually in the right place on the side, and the halos are brighter (but bigger, makes it bug-eyed looking)
