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 have a 2000z28

Copying another thread to the Camaro section since this question is specific to the type and should get more relevant views.

I would also like to know the answer, my light look ok until you need them at night. I did a search but couldn't find anything

Aftermarket lights suck as far as light output goes. And fit. So they just plain suck unless you buy OEM replacements $$$$$

Thanks for you input. Your right they don't fit perfect either but I fixed the rattle with some gorilla glue. I told the people on eBay they offered a refund or 20 percent refund to keep it lol so I kept them. I think the biggest rattle was the garage door opener on my visor. oops

new headlights with crystal clear lenses DO look nice, though. Its up to you if you are willing to deal with cheap headlights or expensive OEMs

The problem is that OEM is no longer OEM. GM has since outsourced the production of these to Depo, so the housing you get from GM is the same as an aftermarket Depo version - except that the lens has a GM logo on the front and the price is more than double. But, you'll find the Depo stamp on the back of the housing.

Original modules were actually made in USA, and not by Depo, but those can only be sourced used at this point. You could still get the assembly-line original modules as late as 2006-07 or so, but sometime between there and about ~2011 the switch occurred.

Some folks have found ways to get the Depo modules to fit pretty nicely (shims, swapping to the original bracket, etc.), but it takes some work to get them to fit their best and it still never seems to be quite as good as the original pieces.

these are the ones I bought and even though I started this thread I still recommend them. I know I said mine rattle but I think i found something else making the noise. I complained about the adjustment pins making the rattle. Even though they are not as tight as OEM I don't think it was the noise problem.. I still glued them after I adjusted them to my linking. I hope this helps there only 92 $

I also have the Amazon Whistler ones. Fitment was fine, still haven't aimed them but I don't drive much at night and everything out here is well lit.

I bought a set of cheapo off of ebay and returned them because they were crap.

I managed to get a really good deal on a set of DEPO Headlights and am pretty happy with them. I still have the original headlights and cleaned them up real nice but the issue is that i cannot find the rubber seals that go around them anywhere. Maybe someday someone will make these seals and I will be able to go back to my OEM headlights.
