Default Halo lights

I was interested in getting a set of black halos for my car and I wanted to see what company made a good set. I can find them on eBay no problem but I see that they come from many different companies. I have also seen that some here find the fit in need of a little work before getting in properly. Just wanted to know what makers are worth taking a look at. Thanks.

I believe that they are all essentially from the same company... just the sellers won't admit to it, as for fitment problems the people that had issues did not know how to remove/install the headlights properly(no offense) they just needed a helping hand! I got mine from ebay and not one problem! good luck

Which ones or what seller did you get them from? While looking at all those pics it seemed there were slight differences in the setup though. I can't be sure I just want all purchases on the car to be a one time shot. I do a lot of background research and then go for the top of the line. Also in the future are the export or euro lights for the rear, I would like to see options. There are some I've seen and really liked and then the Euro-trash ones that make it look like someoneon their car.

Not a problem, hopefully this thread will get some other responses as well.

As a side note if you remember WHERE they were shipped from (state) that could possibly narrow it down.

Both the two sellers on there right now are from CA, AAARGH! If you get on there sometime and check this thread maybe you can tell me which company if either you bought from. Thanks for all the help, any insight on the tails?

I am interested, they are black I assume, your car has some glare from all the shine. What do you want for them? Do you need the OEM lights too?

Candy corns is what I was thinking. I like the Japan OEM but don't know where to get 'em.

Those were going for like $400 each set though right? I am sure there has GOT to be a less expensive option there.

I have no idea what the price was, but no one makes them. That is sure expensive, but that's supply and demand for ya.
