The beauty of a projector retrofit is that the light output, beam pattern, and cutoff are the same no matter what car you fit them in because the whole projector is swapped. The lights themselves don't care what car they're on. It's more work baking apart your headlights and epoxying the new projector, but should be worth it. I've had 18w drop-in bulbs in my halogen projectors for a year and a half now and have gotten tired of the poor light output, especially highway driving at night.
