    the headlights look nice ... corner lights ... kinna cheap look.

    and same with the tail lights. you should just buy those hedlights and they sell better tail lights and corner lights. just my opinion.

    Wow, the seller's got 100% positive feedback with great comments.

    Sounds like this could be a decent product.

    Seems like with over 500 sales there's usually someone that's unhappy.

    I have had bad experiences with ebay though. When I bought my Brabus V's this summer the guy packaged them so negligently they were damaged...well the two that UPS didn't loose anyway. After two months and many emails trying to get him to send the claim info to UPS so I could get my money back I handed him over to my attorneys at American Express.

    Anyway, the guy was a reputable seller and I've never purchesed anything without reading every word of the auction about 5 times. Shit happens I guess. Don't use UPS by the way.

    I also got a set of headlight eyebrows that didn't fit awhile back.

    that sucks man !!! well i did have one problem i remembered, i bought one of those pocketbikes, came with a broken tranny, talked to the seller "ok ok ill send out the parts" and that was last year. ended up taking him to court, plus what i did was i talked to the other unhappy buyers and we grouped up against him. hes out of biz and he they made him refund the $500 i payed him and i kept the shitty bike. still sitting in my garage till today ... collecting dust. and my friend bought a full BDkit for his old celica - NEVER BUY FIBERGLASS his came all broke and it wasnt even made right to fit any car so yea. but all the MB parts ive bought - no problems, as long as they are either OEM or if i really know what im buying.

    for example - im sure you know the center console of the 202 has the wood piece, dealer = backorder from germany $500 + ship.

    Ebay, used great quality = $40 shipped week later i had it on my car! that is huge saving right there!

    Sorry for threadjack, but speaking of which, I'm trying out the HIDs I had in my Cressida on the 202. You should come by and check it out.

    Unregulated beam pattern above the cutoff line, just like stock.

    they fit pretty good!

    kinda looks like your lenses are busted out. u kno ... since its clear.

    the lights have 6 pins (extra ones for vacuum and daytime running lights) my stock ones had 4 pins. they come with the adapter though. u just pluck off the old connecter and put the 4 female ends in the new connecter. real easy. then it plugs right on.

    i dont think ur HID will melt them... HID's produce less heat than halogens..

    hid is the bulb with a transfomer that produces that blue purple light, very powerful lights. projector are the lights that have a glass looking ball in them.

    those look fucking bad ass... and as for HID... as long as the bulb has a sheild... like kenz... they would be perfect for HID... better then the stock lens for sure... the stock lens refracts the the light a lot through the lines on the lens... where as with this set up you dont have that... and coupled with a sheild on the bulb the cut off line stays true...


    you have any pics of your HIDs ken? id like to see what the sheild on the bulb looks like and how it fits into the housing...

    I have a shield on my HIDs (Philips Ultinon). It still sucks. Better than stock at least.

    Mine work great too, if by great you mean having plenty of light both above and below any kind of "cutoff" line.

    To me they're just a temp fix before doing a projector retrofit.

    yea i put them on. the fog lights are the ones in the middle. the ones on the outside are H4 (high/low beam). only the new 97+ cclass has the fog lights on the outside with the lowbeams and the high beams on the inside
