Kinda sketchy cause it's ebay, but they look nice. Just wondering if anyone has had experience with them or has them on their car adn could post a pic, thank you!

First off I wouldnt worry about the service from these because A) They have over 50000 positive feedback which is EXTREMELY good and B) There are tons of people that get their headlights from ebay. I like those they are really clean and not a bad price for ones with halos. Make sure and get some really night bulbs because those projectors aren't as bright as stock headlights IMO

If by decent you mean if they work well? Then yes.

If by decent you mean if they look good? Well that's your own personal opinion.

A few people on here have these black projector headlights. Infact, there was just a thread on here about them the other day.

BTW, those are 2Ga Headlights, yours would look slightly different being that they are 2Gb

thanks for the replies. I think ill pick some up. Just trying to decide between the black / white ones now

I think they look good even though I'm not a fan of the halos.
They use the h1 and h3 bulbs, which are more commonly used for foglights, so don't expect to see too well. They're also usually hard/impossible to aim.

Personally I think those are horrid, but to each their own. I am getting HIDs retrofitted on my Talon headlights. If you don't know what retrofitting is, its customizing the headlights to have projectors from another car. I am getting TSX projectors and custom shrouds on mine, its gonna cost like 900 bucks but I am a techie whore and I love crap like this. Also those ebay headlgihts are gonna have an okay line of sight, but depending what you want, real HID's will give you almost a 180 degree projection of light, some even more.

I personally believe that range/light casted by the stock headlights is horrible, with that being said: I've driven in about 2-3 eclipse's and 1 vw that have used ebay lights and they performed just the same and looked much cooler.

I'd say, for $98, get them and write a review on them.

Keep in mind they all look the same but the "company" that makes them is different by almost every vendor.

The ebay projectors you linked to are more or less the same as the ones on my car. They're about three years old now, and I haven't had to replace any LED's or bulbs on them. However, as I've recently seen in the last year on here, some of the newer projector headlight "brands" have issues with the LEDs requiring you to install resistors to prevent them from burning out, as well as an issue with the brightness of the projector headlights. I personally have no problems with brightness; in fact, I would say that the high beams on my projectors are brighter and have a better beam pattern than OEM.
