So here is the situation:

I have about a small cup of standing water in one of my hi beams. It wont go away and iv tried to plug the hole but it keeps getting in.
About half of the tabs on all four lights are broken two of the four are being held in by tightening the bolt, that is sopposed to go on the tab, on a cut and bent piece of coat hanger.
Ive always wanted projectors, but theyre expensive.

So here is my question: Has anybody ever had jsut the High beams as projectors on their own car? how does it look? Also, at this point do you think I should just get all four projectors, or wait and only replace the one that has water in it with a stock one?




Will try to get a good pic of the water and the tabs later if anybody is really interesetd hahha

The hi beams aren't projectors. They use the same halogen bulb as the reg headlights. Only difference is it has a clear glass oppose to the rigid looking ones. I'd rather just get projectors to replace them. Pricey but it's the best option if you're looking for an upgrade.
