I'm curious to see how HID and LED perform in these housings. I wonder what would make the HID/LED specific headlights any different.

Not sure. From what I've heard apparently they're also making an LED housing... not really sure how they're gonna change it. I guess the quality of the protector is pretty important.

The tops of my headlights on my 2011 are beginning to yellow as well. Not sold on the look of the spyders, but glad there is another option under $1000. I'm gonna try and hold out for a while and hope they develop some more styles. I have a feeling I'm gonna be SOL since it took spyder 7 years to come out with these.

another company is making some but I don't know about the price being too good. I'm gonna drop a grand on headlights, that's for damn sure.

Look pretty good for an affordable price. I'm interested.

For those of you with the yellowing on the top of the oem housing, I bought decals off of e-bay specifically for this. You choice of colors. I installed black and they've been on for 1.5 years now and have held up perfectly. Its a cheap option and looks better than the fogging imo.

I hope the led/hid version are made with switchback turning signals, that would look cool.

Has anyone that installed these tried putting LED/HID bulbs in yet? I'm still using the Halogen.

I just put in an order to get a set of the black ones like you got. I was told they were currently out of stock so I reserved a set and they're supposed to be back in stock and ready to ship out on 11/14. Thanks for bringing these to my attention, I contacted them via email as you suggested and they responded quickly. When they do arrive I believe I'm going to just use the halogen bulbs they come with. I simply wanted a better looking headlight and don't need extra light for the driving I do.

Have you received your set yet?

I don't mind voiding the warranty because these are $250 headlights so we'll see what happens.
Have you received yours yet? I was told the black ones won't be restocked until 11/14 when I reserved a set yesterday. Maybe yours are in this batch as well if you haven't go them yet?
