cubu, I bought a pair of these from that ebay site and as far as I can tell they are genuine Nissan OEM. They came nicely and safely packed in Nissan boxes (double boxed, actually). I have spent over 10 minutes looking over the headlamps, they have Koito, DOT VOR D2S, and NISSAN marked on the outer plastic lens at the bottom. The weather sealing looks very well done, the wiring harness looks well done and OEM, and it also shows other standard OEM markings I saw on my 03-05 headlamps. So I think these are the real deal. I spent hours online and this was the cheapest place I could find them new.
I've also plugged them in and tested them and they looked great. I haven't had a chance to drive with them yet because my car is still not back together... anyway, see some pics:

can i help please... so this will be done..
the housing on the ebay 144 wonders and the quality of the materials is extremely sub par and will itself look far diff from your new light.. its not a carbon copy as you are assuming it is.. it is not. No guarantee anything fits back inside it, the plastic is extremely thin, and the wiring is subpar as well.
RUN.

Well i'd be willing to compare things if you want... i'm curious too. These look OEM, everything looks OEM quality. If they are aftermarket then I think there would be some sort of trademark violation here because they have NISSAN stamped onto the outer lens.
