from what im gathering they have HID housing issues with the plastic bumping the back of the whole light housing itself...
i guess the angle is crazy stupid up in the trees kind of angle and blinds other drivers....so you need to adjust them...but you cant put them back far enough...so they are poor in the engineering dept...thats what im told by some guys...

i have bought 4 projector kits from e bay for different vehicals and i may say junk. yes they do look good but the way they mount is very cheap and break easy. the factory ones are 100 percent better built. i tried 4 different companys for the lights and always the same outcome. very cheaply made. i will admit they look good plus also if you decide make sure you read the fine print cause i learned the hard way READ THE FINE PRINT cause most of the aftermarket projectors do not accept the factory headlight bulbs so most likely if you have hids they will not fit. the aftermarket lights come with there own bulbs and harness and from most my experinences they do not take the factory style bulbs. just a little advise so you dont buy them and get pissed cause your hids dont fit.

These Spyder G35 lights actually do cater to their factory HIDs (ballasts and all):
