I was looking to get these headlights... does anyone know if this is a good site, and if these headlights are easy to install? Thanks.

The site has a SEMA logo at the top. Never had experience with the site but heard that if aftermarket site had that it was good but can someone make sure I'm right. Thanks.

Just here to chime in. I somewhat liked those headlights, but I didn't like the fact that the halo's didn't look like CCFL's. Plus the fact that there are 4 places for the bottom LEDs, but only three are there. Kinda odd. I've got the Eagle Eye ones & haven't had any issue with them. Projector cutoff isn't anything like I've seen people post pictures of, and the halos are extremely bright even in the day. Starting to not like my led's in the eyebrow, but there are always eyelids.. The smoke lens will look really nice on a FM, though.

The headlights do indeed only come with 3 of the 4 needed lights for the bottom row, but your car already has the 4th light. The 3 that come with the headlights tap into the 1 already on your car for power.

As far as the halos are concerned, they are lit by LEDs. I have HIDs in mine, and the halos look fine.

Also keep in mind, these headlights do NOT use the standard highbeam bulb from your existing headlights. Also, there is no way to put HIDs in as highbeams.

I would get those headlights from Ebay at a much cheaper price, then go to hidextra.com to get the HID kit. You'll save a ton doing it that way.

And one other thing, the 4 lights aat the bottom look muuuuuuuch better if you put LEDs in. My TC is black and gold, so I opted for amber LEDs. It looks really good that way.

Hey that website is legit. I bought their cat back exhaust off of them. It actually sounds pretty good considering i only paid 165 for it.

And what did you mean about the high beams? Will I have to purchase new high beam bulbs?

Where did you get the Eagle Eye ones from?


How much are you selling them for nightrider and how long have you had them?


Finally, as you could tell by my name, I have an FM, so if anyone has a better seller or headlight, please let me know

I don't know if they ship with bulbs or not.

On a side note, design an H1 HID kit exist? If so, why couldn't I put them in these headlights? The headlight says right on it "no hid" where the highbeam is.

<edit>found a kit, but why wont these headlights accept the bulbs? Too much heat or something?

Thanks anyway man, but I might as well spend the $70 for the smoked ones I like.

I really like the LEDs up top like these Anzos, but I have a 2008. Anyone know of a good seller that sells ones like this for the 2008, also I heard CCFL is not as good as LEDs, is that true?

No personal experience with either but you can google company reviews on them and it seems for the most part they are a solid place (B-Rating on BBB website) with the exception of one loud customer complaint about the particular product you are looking for; condensation on the headlights.
