Riddle me this? If the projectors are so superior to reflectors. Why do the Baja buggy and Trophy trucks rock the reflector HID setup.
I don't see any projectors on those vehicles, you would think if they were a better light source they would use them. They would save a lot of space a weight. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
Projectors give better light patterns, but technically aren't as durable. They rely specifically on optic precision to help generate their light pattern.
Reflectors are far more durable. Free Form reflectors with clear lenses will outperform any other light in terms of durability.
That's why all off road units tend to use reflectors.
