Getting a headlight fixed from insurance. Anyways these are cheaper than one GM light. Anyone have any exp with these? Know if they are DOT? I can't really decide if I like them or if they are "ricey".

they are awesome

 

look pretty sick to me

 

Are the Halo's really that quick/easy to burn out?

 

I have 3rd gens and I am the 3rd owner (lights have been on my car for a few months now) and I still have all the original LEDs and Halos)

btw they take H1 bulbs for the low beam... not H11 like it says on the site.

 

not bad, but those led things companies put in their lights are incredibly tacky looking and scream "i cant afford an audi, so i bought this instead"

 

Those look pretty sweet!

 

^^I agree the leds are a little tacky, but I just use them with my turn signal so you don't see them all the time. You also have the option of just not hooking them up!

 

Agreed, they will probably be unhooked.

 

i dont mind their look but i dont want halo's or the damn 3 led's just want plain f'ing headlights with projectors

 

Those are the ones I decided on. I hope they are decent quality.

 

you can get the same system for 110 on ebay.

 

retrofit is the only way to go in terms of quality...

these knockoff cheapies suck because they are designed for halogen bulbs and not hid's.

every one of them i have seen in person leaks after a few months, too..

 

Those are the 3rd gens. They're my personal favorite, however, I'd never put projectors on my Cobalt.

Tacky, IMO.

 

I've been using mine since April with HIDs in them and so far no leaks, but the cover is spidercracking.

 

where the hell did my post go that I made in this thread

 

Sorry, I took it with me when I left.

 

?
huh lol

 

what?






















lol, don't mind me. I'm really tired.

 

I just cant get into the projectors that are available for our cars. They all look tacky IMO

 

i have had these(3rd gen) and 1st gen projectors....both are good...3rd gen does look nicer though imo. never had a problem with them leaking..but mine are starting to get the stress fractures around the edges of them....

 

Yeah, I know where you're coming from. I don't mind them personally though. I think they'd be a lot classier/cleaner without the LEDs or eyebrow bar thingy. I think 3Bspec was removing/filling in those features for a little extra $$ at one point.

 

haha....3bspec's not the only one. lol few diff companies that have these ones....the eyebrow imo does look pretty tacky. the led's....not too too bad....it's different. lol

 

Meh, I'm not paying for them. Insurance it pretty much replacing my whole front in and I figured why not get these since a lot of parts are being ordered from ZZP anyways. They needed an actual website to order from.
I'm not using HID's so that's fine. I plan on putting some extra sealant around them aswell.

 

Sorry to all you 3rd gen owners:

But I seriously think those are the UGLIEST projectors. They give the cobalt an odd look from the front, ya know. Takes away from the look by a lot if you ask me.

1st or 2nd gen if you ask me Perfect.disguise. Or retro fits.
