It's much better, but I like the IX gloss black one a little bit more, for utility also: their light is more powerful

nothing really... there's a how-to on here... if u follow that u should be more than good...

sanding down the original housing is the most time consuming... but not hard at all...

never know until u try bro... but if there's nothing wrong with ur HL's then i would understand why u think it's a bit risky...

?.... both lenses were cleaned... the passenger side lens required restoring... in order to do that i had to go through 3 stages of sanding and buffing... if ur talking about the pic of the lens by itself... then that was during the sanding process...
