I bought a pair of black projectors from ebay for my silver A4, looks awesome, but the quality wasn't the greatest. Also, I didn't seal them, so one of them gets fogged, and both of the lenses have spiderweb-like-cracks on them probably because of the moisture and heat. I think lltek had a set of black one-piecers for about $400, that's what I'll replace them with someday

A4tuner. you are right... there are a few things that ebay does well... for example short shifter for 25% of the price and m3 lip spoilers for about the same discount.

when it comes to one of the first things people look at onyour car, and the two things that are lighting the roadin the dark, ebay is not the best place to go. Are there deals to be had there? of course! but buying those cheaply made headlights off ebay is not only a waste of money but a waste of time...

and you are right again when you said that the lights in his pic were ecodes but the odds of you getting those when you finally buy them are slim. did you read the whole thread?

I will now tell you where you are wrong. I'm not a hypocrit. I had those on my car and they were total crap. one problem after another. I admitted that in the thread. I'm talking from my experience.

If you're happy with your "smoked" depo headlights thats fine but you are taking away from the rings...

mine light up the opposite side more for some reason... probly because they are designed for across the pond where they drive on the other side of the road. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but that's how mine are.
