lack of quality for aftermarket projectors, if you do get them you have to mod the hell out of them just to get them to be halfway decent

One would think that they would be able to put out quality aftermarket headlights. I just dont see why this cant be done in a manner where the lights have the features we want (ie: projectors, halos, etc) without sacrificing plug and play ability or overall quality. It seems like so much has to be retrofitted, but I guese I will get better at doing custom work huh?

They can but the price would be more than most tc drivers are willing to pay.

2008 HL's go for about $400 a pair.... Woth every penny IMO

yeah really... i think TYC would be able to put out a pair if they were more in touch with thier market becuase if people are willing to pay 375 for thier tails i really dont see the problem with headlights costing around there or a bit more
