I'm contemplating buying the halo/projector/angel eye headlights from ebay. My one big question that any of my searches has not answered, not to say I may have just missed it, is how do these lights work practically. I'm a little unsure as to where the driving lights come from when actually in use. At night are they as good, better, or worse than the stockers.

I have the sylvania silverstar bulbs in my headlights now and those were a vast improvement over the stock bulbs. I'm not necessarily looking for the halo/projectors/angel eyes to be better than stock but at least be as good. I like the looks of them and just don't want to degrade my lighting capabilities at night as I do quite a bit of night driving.

Thanks in advance for any input and your time.

I have the lights and the light output is better than stock.. I threw some silverstars in there and the light output is still way better.. hoenstly i would throw some more money in there and put HIDs in them... the lights are great just make sure that you install them right and aim them correctly...

Thanks, I don't know if I want to deal with the HID's and such, but we'll see. It won't be until it gets warmer out that I'll actually do this. Just figured I'd do a little research.

Thanks again for you input.

its not hard at all.

i got my projectors for christmas and installed them soon as it was warm enough to not freeze my nuts off..

installed in about 10 minutes...aiming takes a little time though to get a good cutoff..

and the HIDs are not a big problem..

a lot of us on here know how to do them..so you could search for how tos about it or PM the person who put it up

cooljake73

J.CobaltLT

what generation are they?

im not too sure about the 3rd gen..havent looked at them or the ccfl

i have the 2nd gen that cobalt addiction sells..

luckily i got mine before they went to ****

sick06cobalt

they are the 1st gen like the ones in my avatar.... there are little screw like things that you turn to aim them... there should be instructions how to aim them when you get them... plus there are how tos on here how to aim them...

I have the first gen with HIDs and Silverstar Ultras in the highs. These are a vast improvment over the stock headlights! I've had mine for a year and a half so far.

On the subject of the lights, what is the difference between the ones offered on Ebay which are about 150 bucks/set and the ones online at "shops" that are about 300 bucks/set?

I don't know if anyone has gotten the more expensive set as the adverts look the same on Ebay as they do on the websites for the 300 dollar ones.

sick06cobalt

They are the same bro...

yellowltcoupe22

yeah they are the exact same lights...
