Default Where to get harley style heads at?

I'm looking to get a pair of black harley style headlights. Does anyone know a good place to get them from? I looked on eBay but there is a ton of them and didn't know if one is any better then the other or there all the same Chinese brand. I'm not looking to buy a OEM set they are too much!

That's what I'm worried about but a oem set is at least a few hundred! Do you know the seller you bought them off of?

I bought them from this seller and put an extra bead of silicone all the way around them and anywhere it looked like it could let in moisture. So far, 5 months later, zero problems!

I bought literally that exact same pair, but my light output is terrible. I also bought a set of Sylvania Silverstar Ultras and put them in at the same time as the harley heads and I have the weirdest beam. I had a terrible time getting the bulbs into the sockets, and I'm wondering if maybe the bulbs are crooked, and causing a weird beam.

My light output is the exact same as the stock heads. I did have to really tighten the bulbs to get them to fully "lock" into place. I run nothing but Philips Crystal Vision Ultra bulbs.

I have the same heads... sealed them up prior to install and the drivers side started leaking... they have a 60 day warranty they swapped them out for me and now have zero problems. it’s hit and miss with these aftermarket lights.
