Man, I haven no idea. I just ordered the darn things on Ebay and installed them. Did you guys look for the seller in the ad I posted?
BTW, I've been through a ton of rain lately and there's zero moisture problems.

Anyone want my old OEM 2004 headlights? They both have the moisture problem. I swapped them out and have the packaging from the new lights that I could use to send. They're fine otherwise. I tried re-sealing one of them but it still had the moisture problem so I decided to replace both of them. Free pickup in Waltham MA or pay for shipping which is about $39-45 based on a few zip codes I checked. Bulbs not included. I have this posted in the For Sale section and thought I'd mention it here.

I'm sorta itchin' to buy a set to replace my old headlamps on my '04.

I have driven through some pretty bad rain and pressure washed the car today not being shy on the lights and have had no problem. I did run into the issue of one of the parking light bulbs not fitting. Contacted the seller, he gave me a partial refund. I took a razor blade to the housing and that fixed that. I'm very happy with them.

I think I was the only one who mentioned using silicon to seal my lights. I only did it as a precaution due to my last set leaking. Everyone else seems to have good luck with the lights. I don't remember the brand I used but I just bought some waterproof air tight sealant from advanced auto

The problem (which is why I am VERY wary of aftermarket headlamps) is that most if not all sellers withold the manufacturer of the lights. Instead they'll say "OEM! or as good as Factory!" and yet do not provide if it is Spyder, KHC, TYC, ect. Even a lot of parts websites do this, so it's very easy to lose track of who makes it.
I was hoping there was a packing list or some sort of warranty paper or something that came in your KHC box to indicate the manufacturer.
Hey could you get a clear picture of the corner of one of the headlamps? It should have the KHC logo and a DOT Approved number there? Maybe we can try and backtrace it via that?

I might try and do the SPYDER ones. for the 07 SE.
Edit : I just emailed sales@carid for verification, and as long as it's positive, I'll purchase. |
The weird thing is that those Headlamps are not listed on Spyder's website...

I think they had a surplus batch come over on a container ship from China and now they are out. In 3 months when the next one shows up they will be all over ebay again. Hopefully they will have some Camburg UCAs in that shipment as well because at the rate those guys get new batches they can't be making them in the US lol. those ****ers.

We've been through a week of torrential rain and the headlights have no moisture in them. This will be the last time I check in on this thread, as it has run its course.

Anybody seen or heard anything about these? Looks like it has potential, but its always hard to tell until you see them mounted up. Also never used any ANZO products.

REAL pricey, but if the quality is there, its not a decent option for someone looking to upgrade to 06 style lights, wanting angel eyes at least.

Sorry if I missed this, but has anyone put HID bulbs into these aftermarket headlights? If so, how are they compared to stock projectors?
