Yeah, I got both on Ebay. Just watch out as there has been a knock-off made. Real simple to tell as the white leds have been moved over, yet it is the same design. I do have a set that I replaced due to the large amount of High power car washes i went through... One of them suckers blew off a piece of trim off my moms car... Still look real nice, but the white LEDs flash fast, or dont work. Both orange LEDs are fine, as so are the white LEDs on the passenger side. If you think you could fix them or would not mind the flash, I'll sell them to ya. I payed $75 a pair for these. Plus $15 shipping. For being an ebay light and as much pressure that was put behind these things, Im truly surprised they lasted as long as they did. I went through at least 20-30 of those car washes, if not more before I had any trouble out of them.I may try to repair them myself eventually.. . But either way, I've had this new set for at least a year, and I dont go through any of those washes. I have not had one single issue with them... If you want to do something, just PM me.

And you can get the Lightning lenses from Ebay for about $53. Great lenses for not a lot of cash.

They don't look bad but the LEDs will probably burn out soon, just a warning. Not trying to shoot down all your ideas lol but most people have issues with them burning out after a few months that's all.

Indeed. The week long rain we had recently took its toll on my tails... 4 LEDs on the Dr. Side gone...

Ya I speak from experience don't get the one piece projectors. As stated they don't fit right, there light output sucks, and you can't adjust them. I couldn't even use my brights when I had a set. Once I saw the "light" on my last truck I ordered these from the same company and never had a problem.

How they looked on my old truck.
