Maybe we should get a group buy going on these if enough people are interested.
They look pretty damn cool that's for sure.
Does anyone see what type of bulb we'd have to use with it, I didn't see any mention.

Thats what I was thinking. I usually love the look of the black ones much more but with a white car not as positive. I also just purchased some new chrome rims for the car so I may like the chrome better. Wondering if they would be easy to open up and paint if I deside to paint black or white to match. I also saw they have a smoke pair as well so wondering how that would look
Since I just bought rims it may be closer to Christmas time before the wife would let me invest in these so hopefully some other try them out and like them

If these are the typical eBay W-body projectors, they come with H3 low-beams, which is a fog lamp bulb. The light emitted by an H3 as a headlight, even with HID, isn't in the right place and is simply not enough to be safe.
I would contact the vendor and find out what bulbs they're using, just to be sure.
This is all from Personal experience, as I went through 3 sets of these damn things on my Impala before I gave up and put the stock headlamp assemblies back, but with H11 HIDs.
