Default AM Smoked CCFL Halo headlights vs. Ebay Smoked CCFL Halo Headlights

Hey guys, just curious as if anyone has purchased these CCFL Smoked Halo Headlights off eBay. They're both no name brands, and look the same, and are both a CCFL halo light. Are they the same, or is American Muscle's product going to be better? eBay's is cheaper which is why I would rather buy it off of them since it looks to be the same product.

Personally, I wouldn't buy them unless it was some kind of name brand like Raxiom (what AM uses) or Spyder Auto (I've used them on a couple cars before. I know you are trying to save money, but I would think the head/tail lights isn't something to cheap out on.

Does it really matter? They're all made in China.

Well see that's the thing, AM has no manufacture name, they're just called Smoke Halo CCFL Headlight, and it's the same on eBay. They both look the same too. Why pay an extra $50 when it's the same product, or is it not?

GCCBrian,

It's hard to say what the difference is between the two without knowing anything about the Ebay set. However, I can say that we stand behind all of the products we carry. So if you have any issues or need any support, we're just a phone call away to help out!

Neither, get the oracle halo kit and install it yourself. Course if you have HID's then NM.

Hmm. I might use Oracle to halo up the fog lights when I get an HID Kit. Thanks Clowe!

I bought those from ebay last November and they were fine. They fit good and looked fine, no issues.

Think you can take a picture with the halo's off, and with them on? Would love to get an idea of what they look like before I purchase.
