are black housing headlights any good?
Im looking at getting these off ebay
are they one or two piece?
is the light quality better or as good as stock
more importantly do they fit well?
also I live in N.Z and am worried that the beam won't be focused properly for the left side, so it may blind people comming in the other direction.

Well honestly, as most people will tell you: You will get what you paid for with ebay. Personally this is one of those products that I would not recommend getting off of ebay just because of the fact that headlights are an important part of your everyday driving that include seeing well so you do not wreck and having others see you so that you do not wreck. Also, there are multiple threads on how to do this yourself...and if not on here the internet has it everywhere, just search on google or something. So you could save yourself some money along with keeping yourself and others safe. But if you do decide to go with these, good luck to you and maybe you'll get lucky and have a good set of lights come to you. If not, then lesson learned. Good luck mang!

I say nothing is wrong with the ebay headlamps. just add more sealant to the headlamps for extra protection.

Re: are black housing headlights any good? (bpkmrtoes)
cheers guys, I asked the seller yesterday but no reply.
so are the ones on the green EG these
u will notice the black tabs instead of white, and they don't have the ribbing around the lense, they look to be plastic lense.
I think the ones off ebay are glass?
yes they do look good but i think ill stick with the black corners opposed to amber.
But i still think that the beam will be angled wrong for the U.S.A market.
we drive on the left side of the road here!

theres nothing wrong with the ebay headlights, i've had some on my car for a lil over a yr and still no problems with them.
Just be careful from who you buy it from.

Why don't you just save your self the money and paint the housings yourself, it's not like you want projectors, one pieces, or halos.
