i hate mine lol i bought them off ebay and not only do they have shitty fitment issues but when the light actually is lined up on the ground the housings themselves are way off!!! they're terrible and should've never been sold in the first place, i'm still lookin for either a set of stock headlights i can trade for or i'll just buy the stock ones brand new so i don't have to worry about oxidation

anyway here's pics

Thanks, i was looking at the same ones but from afterthoughts or another place i found on the internet. I dont know if the halo's from afterthoughts are the same as yours or if they are made any better.

Search on ebay for camaro projectors. I would go with the sonar projectors instead of the eagle eye one's. I had the eagle eye ones and the were not that bright compared to the stock lights. The beam was to narrow. The sonars have a better bulb and are brighter.
