I was wondering if anyone on this site has these and whether or not they've had any problems with them? I just got mine in today and installed them and there is a weird raindbowish reflection when light hits it a certain way... Also wondering about fitting the blinker and parking bulbs in. I had a little trouble getting them to stay in. I'm wondering about fogging also...

there's some on ebay.. but those look crappy.. and they're expensive.

you can grab them at www.autodynamic.com

they look pretty good... but it wont fit my silver car as well as a black car.

yeah I got those from racerwheel.com, at first I thought they were black chrome but it's not as shiny as I thought they would be. The bulbs didn't fit quite like I wanted them to, they kept falling out, so I used a little plumber's putty and never had a problem since, I also threw some amber colored bulbs in for the blinker, they look nice now. I have that same rainbow tint on my headlamps as well, I grew to love the rainbow so...

They do fog up sometimes like after it rained and I guess it starts to evaporate, it gets in there, I donno, maybe it was the way I installed them, but other than that I'm plzed with them.[IMG]i/expressions/beer_yum.gif[/IMG]

as far as the bulbs not fitting, the parking/turn signal bulb sockets are different between the coupe/sedan models [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/IMG]

These are the ones i got and they look AWESOME i installed them on my red coupe and it fits just like OEM quality and as far as the bulbs fitting they fit great!

I got them from Tornactive.com....

Come to find they're actually gunmetal, not black. *sigh*

I'm getting so irritated with the competency of internet business when it comes to car parts.

Not only are they NOT as advertised, but they're also defective.

The left headlight assembly is perfect so far. No problems. The other however not only fully fogs where the reflector is on the stock head light, but it also shines way too bright. I was looking inside the housing comparing it to the other one which doesn't seem to have any problems and the inserts sit in the housing at complete different angles. That's what's probably causing the off reflection of the light. As for the fogging, someone must have dropped this or it may have been built poorly...

Hopefully Rob from Tornactive.com doesn't give me any crap and swaps the headlight assembly quickly and painlessly. I don't have the patience for this crap anymore.

why not just paint them black?
same thing isnt?

nytejade

If I wanted something painted I would have just done that with my original headlights. I wanted something factory made. I was under the assumption that it would be a respectable product.

I got mine from tornactive & I had to get them aligned. Also I haven't had any problems with them fogging. The alignment cost $20.

nytejade

What do you mean "aligned" ? Did you see what the guy did?? Was he just messing with some screws that hold down the headlight? Where did you bring it to get that done?

i just installed those lights on my car today they look and fit great, but the left light shines higher off the ground then the other and i can only see the right headlight on the street . how do i fix that

nytejade

There are adjusting bolts where you attached the headlight. I'm not sure which ones they are though.

BTW, make sure you keep an eye out for fogging and let us know if you had any problems with fogging. Today is the first day it's rained since I've had those headlights and the left headlight COMPLETELY fogged up. I mean the whole inside of it is covered in fog. The right headlight fogs at night when it's not raining and the left fogs when it is raining... bah... What a waste of money.

Sorry for the lag of response. Yah they zarent black and gunmetal. As for it fitting, mine fits alright., I really have no clue on what rainbow tint though. Were you talking about the ones with taht "ION" tint on the lens or soemthing. I have no clue man. But yah, everything fits fine

You have to get them aligned. I took my car to Mr. Tire to get mine aligned. You can take it to any place that does inspections to get them aligned.
