All that crap on the top wrecks them , the LED's and the squarish parking light dont go with the actually decent looking dual headlights . If they actually woulda took the time to decently integrate a stylish parking light and replaced that string of pointless LED's with 1 incandesenct small city light , they would looked a million times better . I wish these companies would just look at the Opel Astra headlight to see the perfect design for the Cobalt .

i just put mine on today and they look awesome! at night it looks mean. bulbs were included with the headlights so i don't know why he was missing them...the install was kinda time consuming because you have to wire in the led's and the halo rings to your parking lights...the instructions(yes they did come with them)tell you to wire them up to the turn signal...but when you look at the turn signal harness it has like 8 wires coming out of it, so i wired the led's and halo rings to that small light on the side(where the orange reflector is on the projectors) and that was much easier cus it only has 3 wires...pics don't do a whole lot of justice, they look so much better in person and the lighting is a lot better than stock, i just ordered some aftermarket bulbs to replace the ones they sent with the headlights to get even better lighting, if you get these headlights get the silverstar turn signals because for some reason they look better at night, like its a more intense color...i personally don't see what the big hype is over getting hid's, and yes i know they look better and give off more light but if this headlight doesn't accept them then who cares, they look awesome and that is all that matters to me...if you want something more practical(not so much for looks)then do what mercury did...i will be posting pics tom. on the other thread that is talking about this....

I find my stock lights weak. Those projectors looks good but diff need to change the turn signal bulb. Orange is just crap.

well they seem to have a pretty distinct cutout, although the right side needs to be adjusted higher it seems...I don't really know for sure if they light output is better but it seems like it MIGHT be.

that highbeam however, worries me

that whole top line of LEDs needs to go, the bottom and side look good though. I'll stick with the black OEMS for now.
