saw these headlights and wondered what yall would think about these?

i would think these would atleast give our cars a more updated look with traditional styling.

they also have the amber corner version too.

would also note. i am thinking about a retro fit as soon as i get all the pieces for my other headlights.

true it would look nice but lets think here because i thought about getting this as well.....

the corner lights in our cars allow us to just take that off if we where to lets say take the fender off or do some stuff on that side etc....this however these look like you may have to take out the whole thing before you can take lets say your fender off....

and im not to sure on how those arms look they look easily broken (thin plastic)

also what do you mean retrofit?

hum those are not to bad. much better than the old crppy black housing ones with that reflector in it and projectors. and i dont think it will make much of a hassle if needing to remove your fender. really how often do ppl just take of the fenders? headlights are held in only by 3 nuts. so that would proly not be a concer. but i think if you were to retrofit them i think they would be even better. nice find for ebay :thumb:

ehhh, they look nice on coupe/hatches, but not on sedans. They mass produce those lights and when it comes to sedans they just add a piece of rubber and call it a day. that where they potentially fail.

i have tryed a couple diffrent 1 piece headlights and the only ones that had a factory fit other than oem was the TYC's. quality product. anything else, there are going to be fitment and fogging issues. trust me it sucks to have to buy lights twice when you could spend it on something else.
