Since the OP asked, why don’t you give a thorough review on them and not give a passive aggressive comment. And if you are adding HID’s they aren’t build with HID bulbs in mind and yes, the light output will be garbage since it scatters the light. Personally, if your headlights are shot, buy a new set of 06-10 headlights which are a lot cheaper than the LED sets and your out about the same amount as the eBay stuff.

I personally like the new oem ISF blackout headlight with the led drl. I would assume the new model such as 11-13 ISF oem headlight would be plug and play and direct bolt on with our 2008 ISF? Can anyone chime in on that? Thanks

^^^^It's not plug & play, direct bolt on yes, but electrically no. Many threads on this forum concerning this issue. They can be wired to work correctly, however. A former sponsor, used to supply headlights that were rewired this way. AFAIK, this is not longer the case. Use the excellent Search Function on this forum, there are threads with DIYs for rewiring.

Is retrofitting Acura jewel eye into our headlight ever an option? I see they sell Acura kits on retrofitsource. IMO it would look sooo better than 2011 leds.
