    retro fit is taking a set of lights (projectors) from another car and putting them in yours. Installing HIDs in your car would just be adding a higher set of buldb and this will cause light to go everywhich way from your headlights.

    usually retrofit means putting a projector lens/housing into a regular non-projector headlight.
