I'd keep yours and just get the housings paint matched...

A lot of the aftermarket ones w/ LED are known for having short LED life... Just a heads up!

You could always just get anohter pair of the ones you already have. But I'm liking #1 a lot, but the eyebrow isn't all its cracked up to be, from what I've heard and seen.

Hey got a quick question.. Can they use the picture of my car in thier EBAY advertisement without my permission? Its the forth advertisment for head lights with the blue car in the center.


Does anyone know?

im pretty sure they can, if the can find it online... it's sorta open domain!...

Im sure you can contact them and ask them not to, but I think legally they can, seeing as I doubt there are any trademarks or copyrights on your pic... Sorry dude!...

If they're a good vendor, they'll pull it... Only time will tell!!!:Banane03:

I thought they are not allowed to without permission. I heard of something similar happening to another Scikotic and they ended up getting free parts. I would contact them!

Do you know what company used your car for their ad? Find out their information and either call or email them.

buy 08 head lights and put em in. I have tried 3 different types of headlights and no matter how much I seal em they get moisture really bad or the leds short out after like a week no joke.

I've heard bad things about the aftermarket headlights too, but I'd choose 3 or 4

Contact them and tell them how much you enjoyed their product and noticed they had your car in their advertisement. Then tell them that your first pair were destroyed by the elements and you would love to have another pair (for free of course) and they can continue to use your car in their ad.

You know, I wonder if you got some aftermarket, bake em so you can open them up. (I'm sure you could) and change out those LED's that burn out so easily, and then seal it back up with new sealing. Wouldn't that solve the LED problem and the moisture problem?
