Default Black housing headlights

Thinking of getting a pair for my EJ, anyone that has them can you post up some pics so I can decide. Looking for 1 piece pics only though. Thanks

There's many people rocking them on H-T... I've owned 2 sets before and they always fog up like hella... One idea is taking your stock headlights, and taking a blow dryer to pry it open and spray it your self. Save money and keep the OEM Honda headlights.

I've noticed that there are two different styles of black houseing headlights... are they different manufacturers or just different gen.? I think one has daytime lights...

Type I
