Default $165 projector headlights!!!

Guys, I was looking through ebay and found this store. This place makes these projector lights and they look just like the GTR ones. They only cost $165 so I figured i'd share this with you all.

JMO... No offense, I think the stock headlights are the way to go. I've changed mine out now 3 different times and keep going back to the OEMs. I've tried, Chrome buckets, White buckets, dual projectors and still like the ones that came with the car. Again, just my honest opinion. You do what ever. Just a thought (check my gallery pics out and I think you MAY agree). But then again you do what ever trips your trigger. Big smiles !

PS. I would say upgrade to some HIDs, They are the way to go if you want better night vision. That's my next mod, for sure!!

I've seen them all over ebay and would recommend you be careful which ones you go with and what company. I know somebody that got a set and they started falling apart and condensating from rain after only a few months.

"With quality meet or exceed OEM standards"
"All wiring for the headlights are preassembled for essential"

The sellers complete lack of command over the English language is probably similar to the products quality; ****ty

They look kinda cool, minus the LEDs, but from previous experiences, mainly with friends' cars; aftermarket headlamp assemblies are horrible! The seals leak, and the housings/lenses are poorly designed. My roommate purchased aftermarket projectors for his Civic, then put a 6000k HID kit in them. My stock headlights were still brighter. Plus his beam pattern was all kind of f'd up. He put his stock housings back in with HIDs and now there's no comparison. Just my .2

I would stay with the oem and buy some white bulbs.
I have the projector lights and they don't look as good.
Plus I have been pulled over twice because of them not being bright enough.
In one word CHEAP!!!
