Default Aftermarket Headlights for Scion TC 2006

Hi,

I own a Scion TC 2006, and the headlights are really faded. I did a headlight restoration but didn't quite work out as I wanted them to be. I have been exploring aftermarket headlights for quite some time now, and I've read about how they are not good and have leaks in them that burns them out in a few weeks.

So my question is companies like Spyder and Spec D - are they really that bad? Also how's the fitting? Do they sit snug and tight or is there a gap here and there between the bumper and the headlights?

I apologize if I'm asking this again, but I've not read anywhere anyone specifically saying brands like Sypder and Spec D are bad it's just the generic statement that aftermarket lights are bad. Also, if I get one I'll probably go with the Halo Projector LED lights.

I really don't wanna spend money and the effort in installing them just so see them burn out in weeks. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Check these. I have no experiance with them so I can't give any feedback on them, but worth a look.
