Look up factory HID pricing..for something new you are looking at around $600 per side and that is just the housings...you would need to buy all of the lights, cables, ballats, etc and that is going to cost a few hundred more. You'd easily be in it for well over $1600 for factory HID.

I wouldn't spend that much period. Amazon/Ebay headlights have always treated me right for the most part lol.

There is a reason why those ones are so much cheaper...You can't compare them to factory HID or these morimoto performance for you, lack of water seepingin, and lack of glare for other drivers out of them.

Oh I agree I'm sure they're probably better quality and last longer. But i could buy four pairs off of ebay before i get to that price tag lol. I'll take my chances. Not knocking anyone who does though.

I've had the Spyder headlights with hid kit-$300 ish, absolute crap.
retrofit oem replicas -$1350, amazing.
MorimotoXB -$1150, pretty great.
