My factory lenses are so oxidized it's pitiful. I could fix them but I like the looks of the projector style headlights. Anyone got a certain brand or website they recommend ordering them from? Or are they worth the $200+?

You are better off having a set of retro's instead of anything on ebay. There are two vendors on here offering retro's.

I havent been looking at Ebay headlights. What are you calling retros? Stock style lenses?

Stock replacements. $85/pair. Just got mine Saturday, world of difference.

I've had both. Stock replacements, and now projectors. The stock replacements are a huge improvement. I have $650 invested in my retros, which I purchased from Classy, so it depends how much you're looking to spend.

Yea either retro a set or stick with a set of stock replacements. Those spyder projectors are terrible.

For stock housing, go to RockAuto. They are usually around $35-36 each.
Being that I recently got retro's, I say spend the extra and never look back. I am still blown away as to how much light they put on the ground. And they look freaking sweet too.

FWIW I got eagle eyes brand off ebay for 60 bucks and the beam pattern is horse ****. I maxed the adjusters on one side so the beam pattern would be remotely straight but then it looks like poop on the car. So I wouldn't recommend them unless I got a crap set.
Also if it hasn't been said, reuse your stock mounting brackets so you dont have any headlight bounce.

If you have some cash, ClassyPontiac makes amazing retrofits. I got a set from him for my 05 last year and I'm so glad I did. It's saved me from hitting a lot of deer back in the countryside. It's wired so the projector cutoff flips up with the high beams, so I have quad high beams. HID's and halogens at the same time.

I would definitely recommend you looking into a set of retrofits....A) They are A LOT brighter without blinding oncoming traffic. B) It gives the car a little bit more style. C) You are actually saving money in the long run. You wouldnt be disappointed with a retrofit!

from what the housing says Sonar. People say they are the same as spyder but I dont have parts numbers for both. I like em and see fine.

vvme 35watt 4300k bulbs, ddm ballast.

Remember, it is a picture. I have tons of headlight shots and they all look different; some bright, some dim.

I hope those are halogens, I can barley see the road!

It's possible you got a crapish set. Eagle Eyes are what I just got, and they are a HUGE improvement over stock. My driver side isn't perfectly straight, but we don't get side adjustments so I have no idea if it's the headlight or if any of my body panels that are wonky.
