it might be better if you bought depo/eagle eye replacements instead if youre looking for a cheaper route. but a few members who have bought them say the rubber lining is made of cheap hard plastic instead of a soft rubber like the oems. if you do a search youll see a few members who have the ebay projector/angeleye lights with photos.

Thought u were talking about the projector lights. I just bought a set last week. Haven't installed them yet. I got the tails on but haven't gotten the headlamps in bc I still need to drop my bumper.

Keep an eye peeled to this section in the next few days. I should have it done by the end of the weekend.

quality is off on a majority of them. i really wanted black housing projectors and picked up a set a while back, within 6 months they were hazed, light out put even with hid's was garbage, and angel eyes belong on bmw's
