Here is what I'm talking about.

 

I just installed the projectors and how come the visibility is awful. Like the projector would scatter the light everywhere but the front

 

Mine doesn't look nothing like this

 

That cutoff line is terrible for a projector. Are these aftermarket? If so, what bulb do they use? A real D2R bulb, or a rebased halogen bulb? Looks like whoever designed them didn't engineer the focal point correctly inside the projector.

A true projector cut-off line should look like this

 

Yeah d2r bulbs. Im returning that junk

 

Any thoughts on these aftermarket OEM replica headlights? Mine are pretty hazy and Plast-X only helps for about a week.

$207 shipped is pretty good.

 

Update: I purchased a set of these oem-style headlights and i'm planning on installing them tomorrow. Quality looks pretty good. The manufacturer is "Eagle Eyes", and i'm pretty sure I have used their products before (replaced headlights on my '99 Grand Am GT years ago). If I remember correctly, those were pretty good too.

I'll post up feedback here if I have any issues.

 

please post detailed pictures on the fitment and if you had to customize anything. These would be great for retrofit shells.

 

Installation was pretty straightforward. There's a YouTube video that helped tremendously.

Build quality isn't as good as OEM, but for the price i'd say it's a good deal. At the edges of the chrome film on the inside it's not a 100% clean cut. But you only notice if you're looking for it. Everything else looks fine.

I did just notice a split between two surfaces on the outside of the headlights. I'll probably do a water test tomorrow to see if any water gets inside. These have a 3yr warranty so that's not a problem, but it did take some time to install these and I hate to have to do it again.

 

Here are a few pictures. I'll try and get more of the new ones installed this weekend.

Old headlights, and new ones installed.

Also, I put some clear silicone along the gap I mentioned earlier. I did a water test today with a hose and there isn't any water in the headlights. I don't know if the silicone made a difference or not, but it was worth the peace of mind. In looking at the stock headlights there is a gap in the same spot as well, but on these headlights the gap was a bit bigger. So it may not be an issue at all.

I'm going to check my headlight alignment tonight when it gets dark and adjust as needed. But overall I am pleased with the new headlights. They look a lot better than even cleaned up stock headlights.

 

I used the Eagle Eye lights for my second projector retrofit. They turned out great if I may say so myself. I used Morimoto Mini 6.0 H1 projectors, Mini Gatling shrouds, had the bezel professionally painted black, and swapped in a clear lens for orange turn signal lens. I'm using chrome covered amber bulb so it isn't visible through the lens.

I'll have to take the lights out again this next weekend since I lost one of the bulb clips and had to fabricate a temporary replacement out of music wire (proud of that one). I also ordered some of the new XB35 bulbs from TRS to put in while I'm at it. They came out a few weeks after I placed my order for the projectors, bulbs, etc.

My original retrofitted set of headlights will be put up for sale in a week or two.

I'll take better pics later but here are a few samples.

Update:

I was unable to get my driver's side headlight properly aimed, due to a malfunctioning adjustment gear and the lateral aiming being off. I contacted the seller (1AAuto) who quickly responded and sent me a replacement the same day.

The replacement arrived today and after installing and aiming it, it looks like everything is good.

If you're looking for replacement headlights, i'd recommend these and this seller!

 

Heres my question, I have an 03 with HID lights. I wonder if I can just get the ebay lights like these

and just remove the lens and put it on mine. Fitment issues maybe?
