Stock lights vs. Ebay Projectors in LIGHTING

Before I drop some serious cash on these projectors ($300 is a fair bit of change).. I need to know how the lighting is.

I understand most of you that bought them are not going to say "they suck".

But when you do a lot of night driving (on roads without street lights) your lights are very very important to you.

If they are anything like the "Projectors" they had for the cavaliers they will be junk. But who know's i will wait to pass judgement till i hear from those with the Cobalt lights but i'm not holdling my breath on them having that great of light output.

I know a few people have them on this site so hopefully they will chime in and help you out.

EDIT: I found a thread: https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/show...bay+projectors

they were way better than my stocks.... i drive at night about 60% of the time and always get nervous in areas i havent driven before and am also prone to stress related breakdowns so you can imagin how bad it could get if i got lost somewhere i didint know where i was..... it was a major concern to me b4 cuz lets face it, our stockers are horrible.... i feel completly comfortable with these projectors

So I take it these lights aren't plug and play, like wire harness to wire harness? What has to be done? Thanks.

just to let you know i find that the projectors suck when you first get them because the bulbs that they give you are horibble.. trust me i had them.. but if you change the H1 bulbs to hyperwhites H1 75Watts. they are amazing.. i can honestly say that i do not regret buying these headlights let me know if you have any questions i shall be glad to answer
