Lefty · August 30th, 2009, 11:23 PM

Have you had any moisture issues with them?

trueblue02GT · August 30th, 2009, 11:46 PM

nope, never! its fantastic, i didn't even seal them. not the slightest bit of moisture ever.

i got the 5k kit...heres a couple of pics of the lights and the road shot...btw...i didn't have any problems adjusting my lights...took 30 sec. to get them to the same height as stock mustang low beams...(set side by side w/ one lol)

ill be doing HID fogs soon to match...

trueblue02GT · August 31st, 2009, 01:57 AM

haha nice. yeah mine were easy to aim, but for some reason it seems like thers a sort of column thing in the middle where more light goes lol. and when i turn the high beams on, the light goes more to the outside than up.

I think I'm going to buy a set from AM then...I bought a set off eBay; and they condensate like a bitch. Pulled em' off, resealed them with a *SHIT LOAD* of RTV sealant, and now the one still condensates.

eBay headlights. I'm not the one to cheap out and I knew I should have just bought AM's...I saw these on eBay for a good deal and jumped on em'.

FML now $180 out the door

How did you get such an even spread of light on the road? My low beams are all discombobulated and fucked up/spread out.

I had the same issue with my first set of lights from Ebay. Condensated even with silicone. When I had my accident I bought the set for AM, sealed the edges, and no problems at all.

I need to reseal them, the slicone is coming off.

Lefty · August 31st, 2009, 10:24 AM

Yeah I'm just going to bite the bullet and buy some off AM. Maybe tomorrow they'll run a special and it'll be the headlights (since tomorrow is the first of September!

white03v6 · August 31st, 2009, 04:43 PM

ive had a problem with one of my smoked headlights getting condensation in it (got them off ebay). the other one is still in perfect shape though. I took them off and put the stockers back in until i get the chance ill run up and pick up some more rtv and try to see if i can fix it.

(It looks like i just did a crappy sealing job on that one though, and the rtv is just kind of falling off)

edit-damn! i need some hids

its pretty far down on my growing to-do list lol

I resealed mine twice. Still problems (although the drivers side seems to bed good to go.) I'm just going to buy AM's. And I get the great customer service backing them if they condensate a shit load.

trueblue02GT · August 31st, 2009, 10:30 PM

yeah same question as lefty how'd you get the light to spread out so nicely?? mine's decent but it seems like thers like a column of light that goes up higher in the center, and my high beams don't go up, they like go outward. im gona take my bulbs out and put them back in later...which part of the bulb is the high beam part that weird like white stick thing? and lefty sounds great those will look great on your car, my friend with a black gt tried one of mine on his car and it looks mean on black, the AM ones won't fail you! i've had two sets and both are wonderful

Lefty · August 31st, 2009, 11:47 PM

Yeah I can't get my headlights aimed worth shit either...

im going to give it a shot though. i relly dont feel like buying new headlights again lol. and i mean, if im only having problems with one (and the other one seriously still looks fresh out of the box), it would make sense that the other one was just a crappy sealing job on my part (since like stated earlier, it looked crappy and just kind of fell off). but if i still have the problem then i guess we were the ebay headlight guinea pigs and we know to warn people to stay away.

i doubt its the fault of your sealing job. it rains a pretty good amount around here and my car's been through tons of it, and i didn't even seal mine and not the tiniest bit of condensation has gotten in.

hmm...in that case i really hope AM's are just so superior that they dont need the sealing, yet the ebay's do and i just messed it up. im just going to pray that the cheaper option fixes it i guess

good luck! just tryin to recommend a good product in case you change your mind though!
