You can search and find NUMEROUS threads on this top. The AAC headlight use cathodes or something like that. Basically, they're brighter. However, they're supposed to be a pain to install yourself and many people have had problems with them not functioning correctly, fogging because of improper sealing, etc. From all the different stories I've read, it seems like you're rolling the dice with AAC. They might work, they might not.

I have a pair of the K2 projectors and they're fine. I believe they use neon lights instead of the cold cathode and they're not as bright. If you want them to be visible at night time, they'll serve they're purpose. Install was easy and besides having a few LEDs I had to play with to get them to work correctly, I didn't have one problem installing them and I haven't had one problem since then.

I'm partial to the ones on ebay because I have them. You'll get other replies from other members and you can draw your own conclusion. Just browse the forum too. I bet you won't have to go back more than 3 or 4 pages to find a thread already discussing this.
