they look awsome. its worth it if you want a simple look upgrade, no real function, although it would improve light output a bit if you reall wanted to do that you should just get HID's. and you have to remove the bumper. not that hard to do. also 200 I think is pretty cheap for them. I always see them for like at least 250.

I guess its all relative of what you have done to your car before. when i did it on my friends prelude it was quite simple since I had already done the same thing to my accord, and my other friends civic. if its a first time thing I would say it could take a few hours maybe.

i personally used a6 projectors. any oem projector hid setup will be fine. i mostly hear of people using audi and bmw stuff. its pretty easy to do the retrofit too, my only problem was finding a way to actually mount them to the oem adjusting points.
