    sorry but they are crap.

    look good but thats it. the beam pattern sucks.



    you get what you pay for, especially on ebay.


    money much better spent on a hella H4 conversion.

    the stock ones suck major nuts! hopefully these throw at leas an even pattern. well when i get hids ill get me the hella lights but for now these will do. as long as they fit im good.

    the only thing i dont understand is that they are some wat like the newer taco ones. but we will see. hopefully they are good enough to make night driving safer. but as long as they last me about 4 months ill be fine. thanks for input though

    well i got them today and one thing i have to say is that the included bulbs suck. one of them seemed to be pressed in and wasnt really attached to the base of the flange but its okay ill get me some brighter bulbs tomorrow. which would you reccomend? i dont want to spend more than 15 for the set because i will be going HID later. hopefully i can get the HID to work better wit these. if worst comes to worst ill get new reflectors when i go HID. so any thoughts on what bulbs to get? i want some white light ones.

    you guys think these would be a good set??

    yeah i know but supprisingly they have a decent beam pattern but im going to try diffrent options as well. next will be the autopal h4 reflectors.

    cool im going to try to get those later tomorrow you think that its 2 bulbs or just one that is included? and any other recomendations for bulbs?
