Well there are a couple options you can take. Eagle eyes will not give/sell you any replacement parts and pretty much don't want anything to do with their headlights once they sell them. Crap company.@DirtDawg kind of a curveball: New to me '02 LX. PO installed an "eBay special" and after owning the truck for three months one of the angel eyes and one of the sets of LED "side markers" have died...don't know when he installed them thus cannot comment on longevity.
Starting from a non-stock position, pursue replacement parts from Eagle Eye Lights? Start over with a new kit? Sad to find this awesome thread and realize I don't have the OEM gear to make use of it.
The manufacturer website is nonsense so I'm unsure what, if any, product support is to be expected.
With that being said, how do the housings look?
Option 1: You can overhaul the current housings. New projectors (if better output is desired), new halos, new leds, all replaced with quality parts that you know won't fail. Heck if you're happy with their current output you wouldn't need to swap projectors at all, just open them up to fix/replace the accent lighting issues. Only problem with this is there will be some downtime where you won't have the headlights on the truck.
Option 2: Find a set of OEM light housings, swap in a better projector, and be happy. You won't have any downtime as you have a second set of lights, but then again this will probably be the most expensive option.
Option 3: Buy another set of eagle eyes. Not recommended.
Option 4: Just disconnect the wires running to the lights your having issues with on both sides. Now you'll be symmetrical, just not have the nice accent lighting.
There's a few questions I ask people when doing retrofits. How much are you willing/want to pay? What features are important to you? And are you willing to have a few days of downtime? If no a second set of lights are to be purchased.
