Dont eve think about spending all that money on those headlights , those are scam , also dont buy bulbs more than 5000k if what you really need is lumens , there are several posts in which people assembly their own projector headlights , i got this ones made myself you could check it out , but there are several threads that state that those headlamps are a scam...

So are the ones in the ebay add like what you started with, I am well aware of ebay seller being downright liars, it does seem to good to be true having real projectors in the housings.

take a good look at the picture and check it out , it does not have a projector on it , its only a lens hold by two screws on the inside ,those are the same i got the only difference is that the ones i got where not black , but all of them are the same junk and they will dim your lights instead of rising them...
