Anyone try these aftermarket Harley Headlights
Trust me I know, buy OEM ones. And yes I do have a set of OEM harley headlights. I'm asking because I'm curious and for when the time comes when I need to replace these again.
However, these just came on the market from what I see, they look different than the typical EBAY or Amazon ones from China(the set that everyone sells under different brands). I can tell because these have a gloss painted finish instead of the cheap matte plastic(OEM Harley's are gloss black).

Has anyone had these before? Do they look exactly like Harley OEM headlights?

Those do look like cheapo's though, You can bet that Phillips head screw that holds that center rectifier cone is going to come lose and fall off inside the headlight. Also, that brownish turn signal socket looks like the same ones used on the cheappo's . I found that the walls of that connector to be too thick for the factory connector that goes connected to that socket and wont fit. Dunno, could be wrong though. I would call up 1a auto and find out before purchasing that set.

I bought a set, had issues with one and 1aauto sent a replacement.
overall, the internal reflective component quality was not great. I have led bulbs, and the light output was scattered. Which was not an issue with my original OEM set.
I eventually went with the OEM Harley headlights, and am very happy with them. Shouldve done that from the start and saved myself some money.
