I have the HID's smoked ones from ebay. They work fine. However, the high beams both went out for some reason, do I have to replace the entire lights?

I would reccommend changing the bulbs out 1st..

I have had ebay headlights for 3years now and only complaints were they were fogging up so i drilled a hole on the bottom of each headlight and re-silicone them have been fine since. However now the vinyl side markers in the headlight are starting to twist and warp with the heat and the clear coat is peeling so I just plan on taking them out and smoking them. I cant complain i got mine for $75 myself.

btw some of AM's current products quality is not as top notch as it used to be i have had some bad experiences with products from stack racing specifically

I just received these today, they are virtually identical to the OEM housings--the exception being the clear sidelight/reflector.

Materials, assembly, fit and finish were as good as they could be--$89.99 w/ free shipping--guess I'll be set for another 3-1/2 years now...

I bough a set advertised on eBay from an outfit called Blue Oval Industries over 3 years ago , they fit and have held up fine. However the fellow that answered the phone, when I called to let them know the packaging sucked and had broken open in shipping (the housings were OK), was a real dick--I would not have wanted to call with a problem.

I will never buy from Blue Oval EVER after several bad friends experiences...look at their rating on BBB its terrible for a reason

ebay headlights suck. I bought some for my 99 and the NIGHT I installed them I wanted to get a gas-station car wash to take a nice pic w/ the new lights and they FOGGED UP THE MOMENT I GOT OUT OF THE DAMN CAR WASH.

Good thread, been tossing around diff ideas to deal with my weathered headlights. Probably going to get some headlight film put on them for now.
