New headlight installation, successful.
Many of you may have seen I have posted my concerns with the headlights i ordered. The described read as follows, 08-11 Lancer/Evo projector headlights. FITS HALOGEN TYPE HEADLIGHTS ONLY, DOES NOT FIT HEADLIGHTS WITH STOCK XENON HID.
My first concern was that it wouldn't physically fit my car since mine is a 2013. IT DID FIT. my second concern was that it wouldnt wire up correctly. But thanks to a shop i took it too all they had to use was adapters to wire everything up to the factory wires without having to cut or splice anything AT ALL. So im not going to run into any electrical problems. BTW the headlights came with 8k h.i.ds, and they are dark housing HALO headlights. Gave the car a more agressive look, especially when the halos are on. The halos light up when i click the unlock button, and everything works as it should. Paid 288 for the headlights and h.i.ds that came with them. As for quality, excellent to say the least.

Neither was I, but it came down to having no choice. I don't want to spend a stupid amount of money on stock projectors that's just dumb. So for what they cost, I'm sold. Only thing I don't like is the tiny led strip it has and the huge orange marker. I'm going to try to take the light apart and spray the orange marker black or just remove it
