Are these 06+ headlights legit?
Looking for a set of 06+ headlights and i ran across this site that has a pair brand new for $770. just checking in with everyone else to see if you guys think its a legit place to buy the pair cuz 770 is a pretty good price for these new.
heres the site:

^^ correct, these are aftremarket headlights, so the plastic is much thinner, and the plastic clear lens is thinner and will not last as long as the OEM.. good news is they are all reverse compatible... ie, OEM 06 headlights can use DEPO brand 03 halogen lenses..
long story short, when your lenses go bad in a few years, you can buy a cheapo set of 03s and yank the lenses off them.. i just did that w great results.
