i dont like how they look. Ive heard bad stories about them also leaking. When i had my Ek i had CTR blackhoused headlights and they looked and functioned great. If you wanna get the halos however go for it.

yeah, housings have the tendency to leak, but I've seen OEM lights fog up and go to crap (the 96-98 lights do that very well).

as for halo's, the only real problem I've heard is the LED's burning out for the angle eyes. Maxboost can testify to that.

TYC makes projectors without halo's, maybe look into those?

If those came without halo's and minor aesthetic changes, they'd be sweet.

i had a set of those lights and there are a few things you should know before you buy. i didn't know this before i got mine but you have to seal them yourself when you get them because they don't come already sealed and more often than not, you have to cut into your wiring harness to hook them up. i've seen some that are plug and play, but i had to cut the harness to get them going. and after all that, i didn't even like the way they looked. it's all about personal preference, but i think a clean jdm housing looks better. your ride though. good luck.
