does anyone know if the gen 2 and the gen 2.5 capsules are interchangeable? I was looking for an easy route instead of
changing my projector.

any other suggestions welcome..
cheers

That depends, are you looking to put in HIDs?

The Gen 2 and 2.5 use the same bulb for the halogen (H11) option, but the 2.5 has different bulbs for HID (D4S)

Uh, correct me if I'm wrong but there is no such thing as H11 HIDs. You either have H11 filament bulbs or non-filament HID bulbs.
