Hello friends ! I will buy some Ebay Projectors and I'm in doubt between these 2. If anyone have any experience with them, please help me choose.

1) 97-99 MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE HALO PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS BLACK (LEFT+RIGHT) | eBay

Brand: SONAR
Price: 194,99

2) 1995 1996 ECLIPSE/1997 1998 TALON HALO PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS JDM BLACK ESI TSI GS | eBay

Brand: N/A
Price: 133,99

The pretty much look the same an Price-Basis I would buy the second one. I just wanted to know if SONAR makes best ones...

Any oppinions ?

Thanks !!!
 
IMO they're some pretty goofy looking lights, i'd just stick with the oem replacement ones for less than $100 on ebay.
 
In my opinion I would stick to the stock headlights just because they are better for visibility and don't use H type bulbs, they do look cool at night but that's as far as it goes, but it is your car and you can do with it as you like and if i had to choose i'd go with the sonar brand but it seems like they wouldn't fit your car
 
One thing you really need to note is that one is for 95-96 (with mention of 97-99) the other 97-99. Headlights for 95-96 won't fit a 97-99 eclipse (The inverse is true as well, they leave gaps). So make sure the one you buy works with your car, can't tell if you have a 2gb or 2ga front. Other than that, it's ebay stuff, buy the cheaper one, it's all the same quality for the most part.
 
I have a set of projector headlight on my 95 GSX that I don't even use. Here a couple pictures of them, PM me if you want them

I have them on my car.....The lighting is ok...Bright but not too far...Fitment was ok....Mine use H1 bulbs.
 
i love mine, lightning is very good as long as you refocus the beam. It makes straight horizontal beam just like any other projector...
 
Many people don't like E-bay products, but these have been on my son's Spyder since 2006 and are still going strong.

Of the options, I like 2 a little better. Both are pretty much the same though. Speaking from experience, the light output is pretty poor. And you will want to seal the area where the lens meets the housing with some clear silicone, because chances are, they aren't sealed very well.
 
I used to have a set of ebay projectors on my car and Ill tell ya, ONE oem headlight was brighter than BOTH of the lights I had.. Found this out by having to briefly bolt in my buddys spare oem headlight.. That one light overpowered the remaining projector I had..

But hey, your car do what you want! But I agree with Black Widow number two looks to be better..
