Those housings replace the HID low beams with "LED Projector" - I would prefer the stock HID bulb to some (unspecified) LED light that has to be purchased separately.

A Halogen bulb is still specified for the high beam. Of course, one can (again purchased separately) install an LED light instead of a Halogen bulb, but the reflector is still optimized for a Halogen bulb.

Given the much lower quality in terms of performance and durability reported by others for aftermarket housings like these, the fact that bulbs need to be purchased separately, and no evidence that actual output will even be as good as OEM let alone any better, I'd pass on these.

If the total cost of installing these is "throw away money" for you, and your curiosity gets the better of you, then go ahead! I'd be curious to see what your actual results are.

HTH

Must be location specific shipping quote...I see $1,000. Sorry for the bad info.

Says free shipping on my end, but regardless.. I would spend a bit more and get the genuine assemblies. All the aftermarket units that I've tried, did not compare to OEM in fit, finish or output.

Thanks guy. I think I will pass. Not sure if I'm up to the task of doing the replacements anyway.

Been there, done that. Just go OEM. These are not worth the money.

I do have one last set of DEPO 13 model HID headlamp set available at this time if anyone interested PM me.
