Ebay.... Check Sellers Feedback, Contact About Warranty Info, And Find Out If They Met Any Sort Of Dot Approval. The Might Look Good But After A Rainstorm Condesation Could Form Or Water In The Lights, Then You Will Be Popping Those Expesive Hid Bulbs Right And Left. Proceed W/ Caution On Ebay

If you can run the HID's in them and they're of good quality, they could be an easy alternative for black housing headlights at a much lower expense.

Couldn't tell from your profile, so assume you're looking for halogen headlamps. These appear to be halogens (high/low) designed to look like the older HID projectors (03-05). And they don't appear to have bulbs, but even so they look like a good price at $205 for both sides. Ask any ? before you hit the BIN button. Merry Xmas!

I'm not that brave.... I'm still debating whether I want to take the risk... I think I just want to get those stickers or whatever they are that go over the headlights and give it an agressive look... anyone no where I can find those?
