Pretty sure that question was for jing, but it looks to me like the morimoto minis.

I, myself, retrofit using morimoto most of the time because they are best bang for buck for everyone. Perfect lighting for the right price and up to par with the high end ones.

Hmm, shame the mini's only have so few options for the shrouds (according to The RetrofitSource).

The EDM NX headlamps are a bit different, though. Maybe I can fit bigger ones.

I think I'm gonna order a set as seen on the pic I posted of the 7x6 units, see if they fit the EDM NX headlamps, and if they don't, use them for my Pulsar NX (which uses those 7x6 units).

Usually with the FX-R you end up cutting most of the headlight housing and then re-sealing it with all kinds of epoxys and it just doesnt look so sleek. I Put the mini D2S in combination with the Gen2 Matsushita ballasts and OEM 5000k phillips osram bulbs and a small little push button switch for the high beam motors on the shrouds.

All in all... I have a better cut off line than most OEM projectors and shine farther, I will try to take a picture of the cut-off but the projectors are so crisp and nice, its a win-win.
