Yup, I feel the same...hence the reason why I picked up the Gen 3 HID retro kit from Garm. I am sure that I can do something to really make them pop, but then again since I am buying new Vios OEM assemblies and if I do something more to customize who knows...I may have more than that in them.

You already answered probably half the people's responses. These headlights are made already. You have to do a lot to make your own retrofit headlights; and not many people are comfortable with what that entales. These are also much nicer than the crap ones everyone else has from ebay. Supply and demand.

Gen3's already have demon eyes, but you can always do an Iron Man on the shrouds (or inside the projectors themselves) if they already don't have them. Did you get the ones with a color backlight (those rear firing LEDs that shine on the housing)?
