Are you talking about the ones with the three little LED's in them as well as halos? I believe that the general consensus on this forum is that they were cheaply made so I went with more expensive ones from somewhere else. I do like the look of them, though.

if you are talking about the ones with the dual halos... 3 leds in the corner.

they are cheaply made and mine broke. looks nice for a month or so, but the clear plastic turns yellowish FAST, and the chrome coloring fades out really fast. the leds look nice, and still do. very even color and light displacement.

mounting brackets all broke (except like two on each holder) was it worth the money? i think so you get what you pay for. mine look alright, and i feel i got my 90 bux out of them before i need to replace them. everyone where i live has the ANZOs (the one with that triangle eyebrow) and mine sticks out with the dual halos....

as i said before i feel it was worth my money, they lasted about a yearish (just under) BUT now i'm replacing them. see pics in my profile if you want ideas on what the chrome looks like. also, ebay projectors have a HUGE thread started already. if you want more ideas and infor on the different ones out there. check the "New ebay headlights" thread, its the one thats over 10 pages long!!!!

If you are talking about the dual halo single projector ones, i have those. I would rate them a 9 not a 10 only because they have a grey "reflector" behind the parking/turn signal light thats useless. its grey and dosen't go with the rest of the light. here are a few pics
Here you see the cut off

Max, a user on SL purchased Sonar brand projectors from Atomicstreet on ebay.

I would not settle for anything less than Sonar, I myself have a set of Sonar Projectors, but I haven't installed them yet.

Nah, those are the ones I have. The eBay ones are considerably cheaper than those and look a little different.

The Sonar's that are shown in the pic above are EXACTLY what we picked up off eBay.....I wouldn't say they are the greatest thing ever made in the history of the world, but I was impressed with the quality of them especially since they were from eBay.

I would give thouse a thumbs up. I'm using those but I thought you were referring to another popular set of lights going around eBay... the ones with the three LED's in the corner and the halos. Those, I heard, are cheaply made. Anyway, thumbs up.
