I've been thinking about whether to buy Smoked CCFL Headlights from AmericanMuscle.com or not. I would like to know the pros/cons of this product. Put up pictures with this product on your Mustang. Thanks.

These are very similar to the stock style headlights, but they use an automotive grade, true CCFL halo around the inner headlight. This is the same type of system used on high end European cars. - Nick

Automotive grade, what do you mean by that?

AMNick

Cars do not put out a steady 12 Volts, when they are running they are usually just shy of 15 Volts. Regular grade electronics designed for 12 Volts are not designed to handle the extra voltage and can burn out faster. In addition automotive grade electronics are designed to take the temperatures and vibrations that occur when driving.

Many manufacturer's will use CCFLs, LEDs, and other similar lighting products that are designed for use within the computer/consumer electronics industry because they are less expensive. These will have premature failure rates compared to an automotive grade product.

So, automotive grade is a very good thing to have or the opposite?

Its the best thing to have.
