my issues are that they are close to impossible to get pointed right and also that the plastic lens on them melts. If i could do it again I wouldnt have bought them. The lights are junk though they look good sitting there until they melt.

If you take your time to get them aimed right youll love them.. the leds for the halos suck so youll have to go get those replaced...but other than that I love mine... the outside doesnt usually chip so i dont know wahts up with that...

It's been a year and I still haven't properly aimed mine yet. They're pretty much useless at night. Also, yeah mine are "flaking" as it's become known. There's like this outer plastic layer on the lights that is flaking off. They're a nice design, but poorly engineered/produced.

Guessed its a good thing I sold mine a month after I got them.

I drove in the city and when I wasn't in the city my fog lights were plenty of light for me to properly see. The short month I owned my projectors I loved them.

I have had my projectors for a long time, I got them in the group buy... I have never installed them since some of the halos and leds didnt work when i tested them, and I never got replacements from the company either. Just have them sitting in the box they came in.

I also think that If you dont know what your doing wiring things you shouldnt be wiring up the projectors.. I tend to find that people who install them dont wire them correctly...

I installed mine in marchish of this year. I haven't had a problem with mine yet.
Now, saying that, i had to buy two sets of projectors in order to get one functioning set. A whole LED assembly was missing, all the halos burnt, the LEDs left were burnt, and the lowbeams were broken from their mounts.

I have Onex 6000K HID lows, and Silverstar Ultra highs. I haven't had any problems with my new set of halos. And the car has just gone into storage. And i do lots of night driving, and the light output is extreme. I have never seen better lights, provided these are aimed properly. (which isn't real hard, just repetative) Even lifted trucks don't have as good, or only match.
