Default Aftermarket Headlights

Anyone knows whether the Ebay haedlights work with the aftermarket HIDs?
If not, where can you get the OEM headlight?

Really?
I asked three Ebay vendors and did not get answers from them.

Fortunately, some CL members are very knowledgeable on SC so I thought I could dig their brains and get some answers about the aftermarket headlights.

Obviously, we have some tools in CL too!

Because they will just say YES without a second thought. Ebay is not known for its customer service ya know.....
Sorry I can't help on the topic.

I had to buff and waxed my OEM headlights but it is still fuzzy.

Do you know if later headlights have the better clear coat?

Dont know that for sure about the clear coat, but I would like to have a brand new set, that would have years of wear in them. Ive heard the debate about the lines verses no lines on the 2000 headlight assembly, and I dont care about that. I want to be able to see with the low beams on. Need to save the extra cash.

Oh im a tool? okay cool. well maybe if you ask for help you state your WHOLE situation. like the fact that you contacted vendors already with no positive answer. doing ebay for 6 years i have not had issues in asking vendors questions and getting answers.

either way im good luck on getting new lights
