Default Replacement Aftermarket Headlights. Anyone try them yet?

Was recently surfing the web and found that the headlights for the 98-00 GS are being manufactured aftermarket. Found the on a website www.autolights4u.com. My question is has anyone bought these. I would like to see what the fitment is.
I emailed the company and they said that they sell the DEPO brand. I have bought DEPO lights for my other cars and the quality has always been good. Looking into buying these but just thought I would see if anyone has yet. I have purchased from autolight4u in the past so no worries there.
Any feedback would be great.

This is for the Non-HID type models. I do know that is comes with the regular bulbs in place. He said that fitment and appearance is like OE.

Interesting, let me know how the quality and fit is if you decide to go with a set. I might be interested to use these for a retrofit so I can still have some headlights on my car and take my time and do it right....
