Just put a set of the subject replacement headlight lenses on my 2001 GP SE. I picked them up through AutoZone for about 80 per side. Big improvement over the originals, which were fogged on both the outside and INSIDE of the lenses. I previously cleaned up the outside fogging, but didn't want to screw around with trying to heat the lenses up in an oven to soften the glue to get the lenses off and then try to clean up the inside fogging, which looked like it was too far gone anyway.
The replacement units went in very easily and fit very well. Did not attempt to align the beams on a target. They seem to be pretty close to a correct alignment right out of the box based on a test drive. Does anyone know from experience if they are factory preset for an approximately correct alignment right out of the box, or did you have to do an aiming alignment on them?
Also, although they were listed in the AutoZone product description as not including any lamps, the ones I received did come with halogen hi/low beam bulbs installed. Anyone know from experience if these are at least as good as a standard Sylvania OEM replacement halogen bulbs? I had just put a pair of new standard Sylvania OEM equivalent high/low beam bulbs in my old head light lenses a few weeks ago, was planning on using them in the new lenses, but for now am just using the ones that they unexpectedly came with.
