I was wondering if this was a good headlight, if not then could someone direct me to which one is on ebay. Thanks

i have heard that those are only okay. if you want projectors then go with TYC; if you want halo then buy aftermarket halo rings, i believe someone is selling them in the buy/sell forum. check it out.

also, if you are looking to get TYC projectors, i heard the chrome ones are better than black ones.
