Default eBay JDM EG HEADLIGHTS/CORNERS! CHEAP Knock-Offs but seem to be decent????

What do you guys think of these? I found them while searching on eBay for corner lenses.

There a complete package of black housing headlights for the EG and amber turn signal lenses, they also have the sockets for the city lights too.

I was wondering what you guys think....

Let me know

those arent even close to looking like real JDM headlights. they put jdm on the title to sell more. the only diff. b/w USDM and JDM headlights is the JDM ones dont have the 3 nipples, they have plastic lens, and they have city lights, at least when you buy replicas, you are expecting them to look similar, i wouldnt buy them

they would be better if the headlights were mesh instead of clear and the corners were clear mesh

I had them. I had no problems. They never leaked or fogged up. The came with glass lenses and do not come with the city light socket. I mated mine up to smoked vision corner lenses. Pics are here: http://www.imagestation.com/al...94077
