I have been looking at those exact ones the past few days. I like the non-glossy black and that they have different "pockets" for each light. If you get them could you take pics, but I would really like to see the beam pattern (for HID's), I want to see if its flat across the top...

I got similar ones to those already, I'm just waiting to install my H3 HID bulbs this week. Dunno how much it would mean to you if they're not DOT but the ones I installed on my ride actually have them on the lens. I left a comment on these units in the "reviews" section but you may not see my comment on this product for another 2days. Here's a link to what I'm talkin'bout, but if you really like the ones you see on ebay....I'd say get them 'coz they do look awesome! https://www.scionlife.com/parts/?part=10447

they are prolly like the other ebay headlights-aux projectors instead of low beam projectors

the reason i would get these babies is they look better than the others and i would do an actual hid projector retrofit which is prolly easier in something w/ projectors already

What do they actually look like? The pics are drawings. Also, where do you get wiring for the other light? How do they actually look at night (light pattern)?

The question is will they get the Wate build up in them like the others do. I have a set of the clear one for about four months now and I've already lost one halo on the driver's side, and have moisure in the same driver's side.

I ordered a set of those off ebay should be here friday . Does anyone know what type of bulbs these use, just asking because I have read here on the boards that the light output is not the best, but upgrading the bulbs helps a great deal. They look like either an H1 and H3 combo or H3 and H3 combo.

Also if you have installed these on your box, how is the fitment, any problems?

Thanks for any help you can provide!

Well my buddy has the ebay lights not them the ones you see on like every other xb and they just arent bright at all. So thats why it just looks like those wont be bright who knows. Post pics tell us also about if the beam is bright enough
