I never had or seen the lights. The seller doesn't have the best feedback around. Looks like some buyers have had problems with his auctions/items.

I bought the glass/aluminum ones from LMC. I am very happy with them. Came with quality Osram bulbs, and the light output is WAY better than stock. The light output looks much like what you would expect from a newer car. I've been using them for almost a year now and they are still going strong. Keep in mind, since the light pattern is different than stock you will need to re-aim your lights.

It's also a good idea with any lighting upgrade to use a relay kit. This gives the lights maximum power and takes strain off the headlight switch.

I have some similar to that, but those seem awfully sheap. You get what you pay for with headlights.
