From what I've seen so far they are very high quality. Most complaints I've seen have been operator error with either improper install, not knowing how to aim, jumping to conclusions, etc.
Condensation most likely from humidity, moisture from shipping and install. I'm pretty sure almost all, if not all, cases have not happened again.
I don't see the minimal crossing from close distances as being a problem. All light patterns properly adjusted I've seen have been beyond acceptable and output a huge improvement over stock.
Some people also did not have both tabs installed correctly, wires in the way, forced brackets, etc. Others didn't know how to operate the adjusters either initially making their installs difficult.
I will try to get some pics of mine installed when I can, but I'm more concerned with getting the lens off than any issues. I am debating buying H1 HID bulbs or sticking with the halogens. I already have the HID kit, but need to replace my 9007 HID bulbs. I also plan to run highs with lows, replace my Catz driving lights to match projectors color(too yellow of light output for me), wire halos to parking lights, alarm flash to parking lights, run led switchbacks for the corners/turns, and my mods.
Retail prices I've seen range anywhere from $425 to $500+ shipped. Remember also, Spyder is mainly a wholesale distributor so when it's done, it's done and you will be paying more and dealing with vendors (some reputable, some not so much). John has had excellent customer service and gone above and beyond. This whole group buy and dealing with some of CGP would have left a bad taste in my mouth if I was him. I only hope the GP community eventually buys as enthusiastically as interest was. Anyone that's been around GPs knows how that one goes.
