Best aftermarket headlights? Mine rattle
Hey guys like the title says I got some aftermarket headlights off eBay. The adjustable pins rattle over bumps I can't stand it. Yes I've checked every bolt they are nice and tight lol.. Do u guys have a better brand?

I cheaped out on these. i went with the cool looking ebay halos. only 149 bucks! well i got what i paid for. they look cool and all, and function, but fitment isnt great. seals around the outside are almost all pealed away, after 2 years. id i was to do it over again id splurge and get the above mentioned ones from whistler or whatever. the halos look cool as **** when just the parking lights are on at dusk, past that, meh.

I tried the Depo ones and they don't fit great at all IMO - at least not out of the box. You have to play with them to get a decent fit. Switching to the OE bracket helps, but they still need to be shimmed, otherwise they tuck in too far. Even then you can still tell that it doesn't fit quite as well as the originals (more of the rubber gasket is visible because the headlight doesn't fill out the opening quite as much; it's as though the headlight is about ~5% smaller than the original.)
The halos and other aftermarket styles look foul to me, so I would agree with getting the OE-style Depos if you absolutely need a new module (restored originals would still fit better, but in some cases this might not be possible/feasible.)

The best, I'm hoping these are as I have put in my order and don't have them to review yet.
