Lightning a have a clear lens and different reflector. The clear lens makes all the difference, instead if the diffused lens scattering light to make the pattern the reflector on the light aims the light out.

They're miles better than all those 1 piece projector lights. They fit better since they're a stock style light and IMO they don't look ricy like the ones a with a gazillion LEDs. And the LEDs burn out after a while too

Yeah if you look at the back of the light they are identical to the stock ones, just adjust the black ***** on the pegs to match the stock ones and they'll be adjusted already
