Default are these headlights brighter than OEM? for 96-98 EK


Ok... I know someone will say rice. My stock headlights are really oxidized and I want to get a new pair. Out of all the stuff on ebay other than the OEM style aftermarket headlights, this is the only thing that look closest to OEM. Since they are projectors, I am wondering if they are brighter than the OEM headlights. I don't want to pay more money and end up getting less lighting.

Please let me know how good/bad they are if you have seen them in person.

Unless if you go HID youll get the same brightness as normal OEM headlights. Brightness depends on bulbs.

go with OEM replacement...

buy some kind of "superwhite" bulb... not like an HID kit or nothin, but they sell higher powered bulbs... try that...

better yet... just have your stock headlights buffed and waxed. They'll look like new in under 10 minutes. Then you can get what ever kind of 'bulb' you want for brightness and you'll only be out a little cash as opposed to a lot.
