Buy OEM headlights, trust me. I have ebay headlights, although they look great the beam produced is all scattered and only after 2 years the headlights are starting to fade on the outside. I always park my car in the shade too. Plus the rubber weather seal on them started to wear after only a wear. Do it right the first time and buy OEM. My high beams look like low beams since the pattern produced from the headlights is so bad.
