OEM or whistlered? 6LE is selling them already whistlered if that's what you're wondering.

I need to put mine on so I can let you all know. Everything on the headlights seem to be the same as OEM but the real test is fitment.

Also keep in mind 6le-Mark would not sell them if the fitment was off or if they didn't meet OEM

Got mine off Amazon and they fit just like the stockers I took off. I got the full "whistler" lights for the price of the half mod set(which is about $120 shipped)

Where? I'm searching amazon and can't find them for under $200. eBay I found them for $198 shipped.

Those are the half whistler lights, they screwed up my order and sent me the full whistler set for the same price as the others. Not that I complained or anything.

How long ago did you order? I may be buying a set hoping they make the same mistake.

I have the depo with full whistler. The pictures show them with only the half whistler but when I got them it was the full whistler. I had one mounting bracket broken when I got mine and sent them back for a whole new set. Once again full whistler. I installed them with no problem except getting one of the bulbs in one of the passenger side sockets. I took the car out the other night and realized how badly they need adjusting though as both lights point to the center of the car so I have one big bright spot right in front of me but can't see much else that well. Overall I am very happy with them. I did get them on e-bay before 6litereater was selling them but if I had known he was going to have them I would have gotten them from him.

I ordered mine back in January this year

Here is a picture of mine once again full whistler lights with some clear corner lights with black housing as well to match. The picture is in the garage and the car is pretty dirty but you get the idea.

I have not taken any other pictures I have been busy as hell lately. The car has been out once since I installed the lights. I decided to go back to school and have a 10 month old daughter taking up all my time. The car is a garage queen right now because I just don't have the time to give her right now.
