My new lights should be here today. I'll update but I got the ones that jax showed me from Amazon. Bastards were 150$ shipped because of the shipping and for whatever reason, tax. Not understanding how they tax you. eBay only does that when you buy from the same state.

Amazon had some kind of fire sale on the lights and I bought them at a good time. They are currently priced at $130 and pictured as partial whistlered but come with housing painted less the back.

They are 100% Depo headlights. It is printed on the outside lens. The back of the housings are not painted black. I am just stating the the light output is greatly diminished compared to stock.

Looks awesome, i thought it was my car when scrolling through on my phone earlier. What headlights were on there before?, they look like stock that someone painted the whole housing black
Hey btw if you want a new red bumper to get rid of that cracked one you got let me know, I'm replacing mine with the DH one once 6le finishes prototyping and ships it out in a few months.

If you were closer I wouldnlove to get the bumper cover!
But yea, looks like stock ones that were Fd up.
And whoever said they would be scared to drive with these in a country road needs to get better bulbs. I just tried them out and only issue was the fact I could only see 5 foot in front of the car till I raised them. Now I can see everything and the brights are awesome. And I inly got the normal lights that are 2$ more than the cheapest ones.

I'm not up on the fancy hid style, still rocking the old school lighting. And if your car is loud enough, you'll scare away anything on those back country roads haha.

If you want brighter bulbs and want to stick with Halogen, look into HIR bulbs.
Stock
-- low: 9006
-- high: 9005
HIR
-- low: 9012
-- high: 9011
Might need slight trimming of a lock tab on the bulb for it to fit, but they will fit and still use the optics properly for a proper beam pattern with increased output.
See here on what to trim:
