projector halo headlights

Hey all. I want to buy some new headlights for my red cobalt ss/sc and I just needed everyones opinion on which to get, chrome or black. Here's the link:

209.00 seems like a decent price for these! Please give feedback, thank you!

No opinions?

They might me cheaper on ebay. Try that if you want to save some money. Either way you can't go wrong.

Those are first gens and I got my first gens from eBay for 130.
I got the chrome and I like, my cars silver.
I think it depends on the color of your car.
It's just hard to aim them once they are installed.

Cobaltaddiction.com had some second gen ones for 240.00 including shipping. Are the second gen ones better quality? Or is there very little difference?

The 2nd Gen ones are hit and miss with the CCFL Halos. Mine have worked fine so far, but others have burned out.

Anyways, seriously... use eBay for the lights... you'll save 75-100 bucks for the same damn lights.

sounds good man! I definately like the black ones the best. I also ordered an SS emblem to put on the grille of my car. I think it's going to look pretty BA.

They're made by the same company and every seller (Both eBay and regular websites) get them from the same distributors.

So the 2nd Gens from eBay and regular websites will still not fit correctly just the same. (If the holes don't line up, just get your shoulder into it until they do ).
