    great, thanks. I'm torn between a retro of my oem heads or having something like yours done on a set of spyders I bought online (not ebay, and these were made in taiwan which actually has decent manufacturing standards, versus china). i'm aware of the many issues with aftermarket headlights but still find I like the looks of them. You, however, have seemed to blend the best of both worlds. thanks again :thumbsup:

    Does the grille make much of a difference in how bright they are?
