    Does anyone have any recommendations for oem style headlights? And please give a link if so. I have halo led projectors and I HATE them. No brightness, no distance, cheap/broken mounts. So tired of them. Thanks!

    I've done 2 sets now and they're really not that hard. I'm actually gonna be making a third set now and plan on selling them.

    If you just want factory replacements because its the easiest swap, go to rockauto and get the TYC brand headlights. They are like 70-80 bucks shipped to your front door.

    Thanks! The retrofit seems cool, but I don't feel like risking it, but I honestly only need one headlight lol. I had one OEM break, but since those aren't OEM I should probably buy a set huh? Haha

    I run the one's off rockauto, I am not sure if the ones off ebay are made by the same people.

    I just know that the ones I bought are still clear and looknig brand new after 2 years, and the headlight brackets are stronger than some cheaper brands so I get zero headlight bounce.

    I have two sets of the RockAuto lights (one set on the vehicle and the second set waiting for a retrofit). $36 or $37 is what I paid, and re-used my old brackets.
