The 95 and up tegs come with projectors stock. My hid line is sharp and does not blind anyone

No they don't. They may look similar, but the reflectors/projectors are not the same.

I apologize that I can't read Japanese. Care to translate?

And this example has already been tried. Check page 2.

04/05 Impreza WRX Tuned by STI's came with HID's from factory with proper reflector shrouds rather than projector optic lens.

You're kidding me, you can't look at a picture and see the letterings HID next to it and see the lighting, you're more ignorant than I thought.

Um ok? Still not sure exactly how you determined that these are halogen lights with a Subaru supplied HID kit.

From Subaru of Canada's site, if these are the same headlights, why are they not an available accessory on the lower model? I mean, they are the same exact part right?



You are aware that '04-'05 STI and WRX reflectors look the same until you look at them side by side, where you will see a clear difference in the shape, right?
