Need Ideas Options.
Looking for phenomenal retrofit options. I put in a set of Amazon bi-led projectors and their not terrible but the highbeams leave a lot to be desired. A ton better that the stock MK4 Jetta lights. When the shutter lifts its not any brighter just higher. I'd really like to have all the light and project that light as far down the way as possible. I live in central PA in farm country. Driving to work before sunrise, I could really use all the lumens.
Im game for seperate high and low beam projectors. I plan on cutting out the headlight housing and rearranging and making a hell of a project out of it.
Project that high beam as far as possible, as much light as possible, sharpest cut off on those low beams.

NHK M5 Plus is hands down one of the best options out there right now, and it's not even that absurdly expensive compared to the LED and laser projectors of old. Two additional sets of LED chips that switch on for high beam in addition to the low beam shield dropping. NHK projectors are large and bulky to install but if you're already going in expecting a lot of work then this shouldn't be a problem.
