I always have trouble finding them on ebay for some reason.
Oh well.
Hopefully I'll be trading for these very soon.

Yeh thats what I did. Just use a little elbow grease You may want to put blue tape on the lip so when you do put them in it wont scratch the lip. Cause I scratched mine just a bit when I forced them in, but nothing noticeable.

I hope you plan putting some extra silicone on them as well or you'll be pulling them back out very soon.

if i wanna switch from OEM to these, and already have the oem's installed.. would the install just consist of me popping the vrd's in and connecting the wires from the OEM's to the vrd's? or would the vrd's use new wires and stuff

Did you ever get a tracking number? Unless I read wrong, I believe in the first few pages one or two people mentioned tracking numbers.

I ordered mine on Sunday and got the package on Wednesday. They gave me a tracking number for USPS. They seem decent but the glass lens is making them weigh too much for the size.

I don't care about the weight, but it is odd that a small fog light weighs as much as my head lamp.
