Headlight Question

What do you guys think about these headlight? I feel like they aren't legit..

Most of these cheaper e-bay ones work, but they are not the same quality as the OEM. Mine are from e-bay also, and I have not had any issues; some people experience fogging due to the lights not sealing very tight.
The ones you listed are new to me, I have not seen them before, but I would guess the same concern would apply - the easy cure/prevention is to spread a thin bead of silicone sealer around the seals. These have LED's - no way to tell how long they will last, but LEDs in general are supposed to outlast regular light bulbs.
For the price they might be worth trying. (BTW, too much crome for me, so I personally don't like them...just my opinion)

 

Yeah I was just thinking about buying them. Just wanted to see what people though of them

 

I like them.

 

Someone posted a thread within the past month of some black ones just like those asking about them. To me the ebay lights should be fine as long as you add some extra sealant or reseal them. Light output then probably becomes the only other issue. Of course depending on the ebay sellers policy if they turn out to be shit just return them for a refund.

 

Hey OP did you end up ordering these? I am thinking of getting these this weekend but would like to see what your thoughts are on them.

 

Hmmmmm, I don't know about these. Even though I live in Commiefornia, when I upgrade my headlights, I'm going to do HID's. It's a bit of work, but the end result looks and performs so much better. I'm gonna keep my stockers though, so when I get a fix it ticket, I can just swap em out then have the ticket signed off, then swap em again. My brother did the same thing with his tinted windows, he got so many citations for illegal tint on the front that he just bought a set of stock glass and would swap em...stupid revenue chasers.

 

Pretty sure that's for those people who don't know how to cut, solder, crimp, heatshrink. I wouldn't expect it to be plug and play with the LEDs.

 

On whatever headlight your looking to buy on Ebay, sellers always write that. I guess they want to protect themselves if someone doesnt know how to align them, causing blinding and maybe accidents. Probably about the LED wiring also for these particular headlights.

 

lol I would keep my stock ones too! I would like to order these and then do a retrofit on them with the h1's from theretrofitsource. I just want to do something different and I was browsing ebay and saw them and then I found this discussion. I am also having problems keeping my corner lights on so I figured I would give these a try. If I don't like them I suppose I can always send them back

 

I just like the fact that its an all in one piece. My side markers don't stay in place. I've boughten 3 eBay 2 OEM dealer sets and they still fall out... Toyota said nothing I could do they were installed correctly.

 

looks kind of neat, but i would have to see it installed in person.
