There are 3 different versions. The projectors are the last design, but there 2 styles of fixed halogens also. What you prefer is up to you, the projectors may have a better light pattern if anything, but otherwise they're all headlights.

Remember rule of thumb, a car is not a xmas tree, the lights are there for you to see where you're going, not for a light show. No offense.

I have hated every set of projectors I have owned Silvia or Skyline, they suck. The four-squares are better IMO

No but the four-squares have just that, the headlights have two equal sized square reflectors in each one. They just always seem to shine brighter than the projectors and I like the look much better. The lenses get cruddy in the the pros and the brightness goes away quick. Someone posted an idea about cleaning them with vinegar I THINK, you might want to use the search on that in case I am just totally whacked.The double projectors have two round "eyes" on the outboard side of each light and a square shaped reflectored yellow fog light near the grill, the triples have a third eye-type lens for the fog light. I have a set of double projectors if you want a set.

I was wondering what a set of the double round headlights would cost me.
