Thumbs up SPYDER vs. RECON

Ok guys, I need some help

I am looking to get new projectors, I was originally set on the recons for my 2010 f150 but have recently started looking at spyder. They both seem to be pretty close and on CARid the Spyders seem to come with LED's in the heads where as the recons come with Halogen. I just want some insight and oppinions on both if possible.

Also, if any one has pics of the smoked out Spyders installed that would be great, ive seen many smoked CCFL recons already and just would like to see some comparison.

Don't get either of them. They both look terrible. Go with some HID retrofits from Bilinvic.

You have a 50/50 shot that you will be able to get them aligned,paid a shop to see if they could do it and no luck.Im stuck with them the place I bought them from will not answer my calls or E:Mails and they are no better then the silvers I bought for 50.00 bucks.If anyone can tell me if it is worth taking the back off and replacing the adjustment clip please let me know.

Thanks to all answers, but after talking with Bil a bit, he's secured my business.

I have clear Spyder ccfl halo projector headlights. I added hids to them. I have not had a single issue with installation, alignment or function. I get compliments on them all the time.
