Spyder Projector Headlights

Any reviews or thoughts on these? I cant bring myself to spend the money on OEM ones and these look like a good option. Never heard of this company and am not sure on the build quality.

EDIT

Here is another page that has some more pics, I might have to give these a try.

Yea but do you think they are any good? Not just the build quality but the light pattern also. I did a quick search on the forums but could not find anyone that has them. Would be nice to know if they are even worth the money.

a member on 9g has them. they are china made but the light pattern is pretty good. For the lens i would keep an eye on because the stock ones tend to haze if not taken care of.
here the link

Iv personally have heard bad things about the fitment of this companies headlights. I cant speak from experience since i have never purchased from them. But some say the clips dont line just perfectly and the projector lens can be kind king clouded.

Just got the lights in and did a test plug, of course the pins are a little too wide so it wont plug all the way in. Might need to do a little modification to get them to fit. I'll post some pics soon.


Dont mind the dirty car...

looks good so far. you should get some protector film for the new ones. they look too pretty to be messed up by road damage

Hi, I am also thinking of getting these but the smoked version.

Can you post the reply in the thread instead of PM.


Thanks and look forward to your update

I also would like to know, I read about DRL bypasses and searched the web but could not find an answer.

The DRL bypasses disable DRL permanently, but I would like to have the LED's on during the day and when turning on the lowbeams the LED's turn off...

I just got the exact same lights. everything works so far, but where did you wire your halos? I wanted to use the halos as my DRL instead of the projectors. Any thoughts?
