Default after market headlights

So I finally have the cash now to get them but my only problem now is finding a trust worthy website. Any suggestions?

Online cost more cause of the shipping and stuff.

Go to a nearest Automotive Shop. Called a specfic automotive shop which is close to you and ask for a quote. If you want Authentic JDM Non-HIDs Headlights it'll cost you at least $400-500. Authentic JDM HIDs Headlights cost about $900-1000. If you worry about the condensation about blackout your stock headlight then Authentic is way to go.

And you think aftermarket non-OEM headlights will be any better? Every non-OEM headlight I've seen has been a major POS. The only ones of quality were the old Vision JDM sidemarkers, and those were sidemarkers.

I have some DEPO JDM headlights on my car and haven't had a single problem in 2 years. Some are lucky some are not.

Napa and schucks, knects,ect.... carry a light cleaning/polising kit that's supposed to work quite well. I haven't tried it yet but was planning to use it on my tail lights. I'll let you know more after i'm done
