X2! I had them. They are cool looking for daytime running, but for me personally I found that the light out put with my stock halogens was better(and I had the HID ones). I put in PIAA headlight halogen bulbs and sold the projectors. One of the problems was that in order to see any distance down the road you had to aim them up to the point where you blinded all oncoming traffic. You know you over paid if those are not the HID ones. You can get the regular ones for 165.00 plus shipping. I had one of the halos giving me problems and some of the angel eyes LEDs burned out. Plus high beams are halogen and no HID, so going from purple/blue color to orange/red halogen is really strange for trying to see at night. Good luck, some guys love them. I would rather see at night, than look cool during the day.

Exactly X2, part of the problem is that the projector lenses themselves are plastic not glass.

Do these lights come with new bulbs or require a different main bulb? Or do they use the stock ones? I've got a set of HELLA HID bulbs in my stock lights and absolutely love them. But i do like the projector look.

Save your money and buy better tires, rims, seat covers, tow hitch, major services, new cds, etc.
