yeah I got them but from a different seller. They aint bad, but you'll have to work harder to aim them and figure out a way to keep the little led's in place, but I gotten alot of comments on them. They look sweet nonetheless

Alot of people on here have them..there are pro's and con's to getting these...

Cons
Some people have had wiring issues, causes hi/low beams blowing constantly,leds blowing, halos stopped working
Others have had condensation problems, ie. fogging
Light output on lows is significantly worse than stockers
Aiming them is a pain in the ass, less so with Anomolous' How To

Pros
Look sweet
Great for HID conversion kits
Hi's are way better than stock


Personally I have had only minor problems, leds blew, but got them replaced easy. Wiring them up (LEDS and Halos) was a pain for me, since I just spliced them into the DRLs and they were not making a good ground so the werent working. Aiming them took a good amount of time, they are still not perfect, but they are sure better than before. Nevertheless I'm happy with my purchase.

Are you allowed to have Blue lights on your car like that? I didn't think you were allowed but that might just be in KY where I'm at.

You still have to line up your light beams from the projectors. If not you have the problem I have where one beam shines 2 inches higher than the other. I plan on fixing them, but my drivers side Halo burned out so I have to replace that first. I'm putting my stockers back in today because I'm leaving for a road trip to OR tomorrow. So I guess I'll have to fix them when I get home. I bought mine from EBay also, however I shopped around and found a true plug and play set. Meaning they where already wired with a plug that matched the factory plug. All I had to wire was the LEDs.

Aiming them is a major bitch. Other than that, they look sweet. If you can spend a couple hours trying to line them up right, then go for it. Make sure you seal them properly.
