I really think that it's pathetic that with all the other custom parts out there, even ones for the '02-'05 Ex, we don't have aftermarket, ready-made, plug'n'play (to quote Microsoft) projector headlights.
I really wanna put HID's in mine, but I hear so many people {breeder's term for female canine}ing about how someone put HID's in a car that wasn't meant for them, and they couldn't see and almost ran off the road.
Now, most of these people are driving small cars, and in borrowing the Camry a few nights ago, I came head to head on a 2-lane road, with an Expedition with aftermarket HID conversions on the headlights and fogs, and I did get kinda blinded. That said, I understand why they put HID's in projector housings.
Now, considering more and more people are finding the benefits of HIDs, why aren't these other companies who make all the other aftermarket parts for the 02-05 Explorer, make some {vulgar term for intercourse}ing projector headlights, instead of making us go out and try to find out how to shove our headlights in the oven, and do it ourselves, possibly causing more of a problem? I was told by a stockist I emailed that "projector headlights are not possbile for your vehicle." BULL{vulgar term for fecal matter}! It is very possible otherwise other people wouldn't have already done this project and posted it!!
If they want to make us a good one, give us seperate high and low beam projectors, a reflector for DRLs or secondary fogs, and a line of bi-color (white/amber) LEDs across the top to use as a parking light/turn signal. Something like what I'd seen ready made for an F-150.
I'm sorry for the rant, but I am physically tired from today, and I am just tired in general of all the other cars getting the good parts, while we get {vulgar past tense for intercourse} to the sidelines.
Hopefully someday we can buy them at Autozone, when we go get the parts for our next tune ups.
