Ebay Headlights

[txredgt]

So I thought I saw a post about this and I did a search for it but maybe I looked in the wrong place or didnt go far enough back. I am curious as to how the ebay headlights are. I am looking at the clear side markers with some smoke/tint but not cheech and chong smoked out. Basically I just want to know if the quality is decent enough because they are cheaper than other sites.

Unless they are Ford oem, then absolutely not. Every set of aftermarket Ebay lights that I have dealt with, even my own, are currently FULL of condensation. Nothing shy of remeltimg them together properly will make them stay dry inside. One of my lights F$ck!*@ jiggles around in the housing when I hit bumps. I've had people pull over in front of me thinking I was a cop before, they are so bad.

I put a set on my wifes car two years ago and haven't had a problem with them. the cars not driven daily so that might be the difference.

That's quite possible. I drive my car like I stole it every single day to work.

+1 Yeah the quality and fitment of the eBay headlights are terrible.
If you get moister in them they begin to condensate quickly.
The OEM Ford headlights are the best by far.I hope SRT Handz
chimes in soon!

Well looks like I won't be getting them off ebay then because the cars a dd. Does ford make the clear sidemarkers with the smoked look or do they just do amber sides?

They suck. If Ford had tinted OEM lights, I would start saving right now. Besides the moisture issue, you would think these companies would just look at Ford OEM and put the right weather stripping instead of the thin garbage that does cause fitment issues.

I got some clear lens headlights from American Muscle...no, they aren't quite OEM quality but they were much, much better than the e-bay ones I was replacing...I'm happy with them
