Everyone will tell you not to get them...poor quality, bad lighting, etc.
BuggeyEYED 10-06-2006 06:27 PM

those are NOT jdm projectors.....they are EBAY jdm projectors...they probably do come with whatever you need though..i would save up another 200 or so and buy a set of used morettes...or another 6-7 and get read jdm/edm projectors

Yeah, stay away from the eBay headlights. You get what you pay for.
blueandgold 10-06-2006 07:29 PM

have you guys personally bought these exact lights and experienced this for yourselves? I dont have the money to pay 500+ for some new headlights, I just thought this might be a nicer step up from my stockers
David Medina 10-06-2006 08:11 PM

ive read of a few post of people having these saying the light output wasnt great and few other problems. i persoanlly wouldnt know.

but im looking at getting some orciaris or prodrives, but i cant justify paying $900 for headlights. these are hella cheap , i am actually considering getting a set, but i dunno.

I rather stick with stock headlights.

how did moisture get in them? How much did you pay for the morettes?
ScoobyRacing03 10-06-2006 08:59 PM

those are the lights that came on my car when I bought it. they are not the best lights but they are decent. I have no idea how long they have been on the car, but I bought the car this past February and I haven't had any problems with cracking or moisture getting inside them. I'm saving up to get a pair of these [url]http://www.fastwrx.com/wrxstylhead.html[/url]

Only thing I don't like about them is the white cover over the turn signals. I have no idea if these are as bright as stock or not since I've never driven a bugeye with stock lights at night.
here's a few pics of them on my car for ya.

honestly I don't know it came on the car when I bought it. I had seen it on fastwrx.com but seems to not be there anymore.
it's on the car showing the headlights I posted about here [url]http://us.st11.yimg.com/us.st.yimg.com/I/fastwrx_1916_43214376[/url] so I can assume it's made by Orciari

my old roommate had them and yes, they do suck. they leaked on the blinker, and they have very poor light out put. plus, they are not wired correctly. you will have to switch some wires around. save your money and get a wire harness and some better bulbs

This is what I did with those exact headlights.. You could say I slightly modified them :D.

Weather is supposed to be good this weekend.. hopefully I can put the finishing touches on the drivers side one:

I remember seeing your thread about that. If I had the time to I'd do the same thing to mine. How about you send me yours when you are done and I'll send you mine [img]http://www.lazyforums.net/images/smilies/x.gif[/img]

Here is my thread of what I did to them.. they went through a bunch of trial and error attempts until I finally got them to work the way I wanted to

[url]http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=962510[/url]

Light output is about the same as stock.. I put in some GE Nighthawk bulbs in them instead of the ones that come with the lights.

Maybe next year I'll do the TSX HID retrofit into them...

They should look pretty close to this Photoshop that I did when they are both done:
