Aftermarket v. OEM Projector Headlamps

Does anyone have a beam comparison shot?

I'm very curious as to how these aftermarket projectors perform beam wise.

Thanks.

I would bet money as to the fact that OEM projectors have more R&D in them than any ugly a$$ aftermarkets do. Invest the money. Buy OEM.

aftermarket headlamps dont use the best projector lens (which pretty much makes or breaks the quality of the light output and cutt off) to save on cost to make the lights more affordable.

I agree, OEM is much better, and I would never buy anything but OEM for projector headlamps.

I am just curious to see a side by side beam pattern on both.
