Can you leave the reflective part of the housing as is with the retrofits? Or would that make it too bright?

It wouldn't make a difference (other than that it looks "off" IMO) the projector does just that, it projects the light out, rather than bouncing it off the reflective surface.

Youre right it does look off. I just don't want my headlights to look too busy if you know what I mean? I'd like to keep the headlights stock looking and upgrading to projectors at the same time

these look nice. Are they the same headlight i am just curious about the yellow marker light part. Do you just black it out? or what?

I want some retrofits so bad! But gotta make sure she's running solid first.

You can buy the headlight housings without the amber reflectors or they can be popped out when you open the housings.

^What he said

But, be aware, if you are buying new lights and DO NOT want the amber corners in, don't buy lights with them because it leaves 3 little holes that are still there. It's not bad, but it's something that would bug me

and i did a test fit on an older set non-painted before i painted em and found a pic back in my photobucket

I think it'd look better with the mini gatling gun shroud though

and to keep it as OEM looking as possible, i'd keep the amber reflector in the corner. One less thing for the police to pick at
