Default black headlights

hey everyone,i had a deer try to kill itself in front me the other morning and he or she decided to break one of my headlights in the process.since i have to replace the light anyway i figured this would be a good start to my uprades.my question is,has anyone tried the JDM black housing headlights that you can find on ebay?i want to know if they put out the same amount of light as the oem,and if they fit good.i know these are aftermarket and fitment can be a problem.thanx.

Do you have a link? I think I know exactly which ones you r talking about...DON'T BUY THEM!!!! If they are infact the same JDM ones I got, they suck...

The whether stipping was coming up in certain areas and I had to re-silicone the outside.
Either way, I didn't take em back because they gave me a hefty refund amount to keep them....and they were one city over.
The fitment was fine but I don't buy products only to have to work on them again.

I think there is another company that is producing better headlights...

I would check these out if you want a subtle legal black headlight. Just make sure they are not the JDM from 4 Car options.

I paid for what I got: paid $170.00, but they offered 100.00 refund so I kept them...Might want to look for who makes them for PFYC.
