Does anyone have their old headlights they'd like to sell me? I'm looking to get rid of these halo headlights with sub-par mounting brackets. I would need your stock brackets or the ones from amazon you're not using. PM me if you can or reply here. Thank you.

anyone know if these come with any protective coating on them? Clear coat or something similar? I messaged depo and asked them so if noone posts up before they respond I will post what they say.

Would hate to spend the money on new headlights for them to turn around and yellow out and be all crappy looking

I don't think they have any kind of coating, just a plastic lens like the stockers. Would probably turn yellow in about 12 years or so like the stockers.

not so concerned with the yellowing over long term but what about condensation and fogging up then just overall looking dull?

Keep a UV repellent wax on them and they should look good for a very long time.

UPS just dropped them off and I installed in like 5 min. WOW my HID's are blue now compared to my old and busted looking headlights.And yep they are whistlered. Only issue I had is one of the rear black tabs broke while lining up with the holes in the back, but JB weld and its all better. Now gotta wait till dark to align them.

pictures..... I even have a shot of my dirty car with the old headlights and new SS hood I picked up.
