300C HID vs Non-HID pix?

can someone point me to some comparison photos of the difference in appearance between the HID option & the regular projector Halogens on the 300C?

i'm talking about daytime appearance w/ the lights off

(and for bonus points, a pic of the non-C (non-projector) lights may also be of interest to some)

Sorry, no pictures here and might be irrelevant, but here's a comment...

I saw a Base 300 by my house the other day and let me tell, I have no clue how the hell they got an HID kit in there, it was not factory thats for sure. and for what I've read here, there is no aftermarket kit available yet. and if it was regular bulbs, they really looked great. Maybe some silverstar? The tint was a tad bluer than the original HID but not by much.

Raka:

If you see the front of both are "almost" the same. The difference is when you see them from the back of the headlight assembly. Both projectors are different.

wow - saw your HID surgery post - impressive!

so, to clarify, it is not possible to tell a HID from non-HID 300C in the daytime (unless you inspect it real close or take it apart)?

ps: i LOVE P.R. - casinos, cuban restaurants, rain forest, etc etc!
