ebay projector headlights
« on: 21 May 2013, 12:55 »
Im looking at getting some projectors. But i do not want them horrible ones with the halo rings in them. Been searchin for some r32 lights but there way too much for me to justify :lipsrsealed:

I used to have some depo projectors, decent quality.... Better than the FK ones on my other golf.

The hella celis ones look far better to me, the halos dont look dim/yellowcheap/chavvy like other ones.

Plus my hella celis have all the bulbs  :lipsrsealed:

Those are the same as mine:



They are a lot darker in the flesh than they look in the ebay pic.

I have Depo's on mine too nav. Good set of lights all in all give a decent pattern and are nice and crisp with my 5k HIDs. Only problem I was the adjusters being broken on arrival but others have been fine. Ad even got a parial refund when his were broken.

I got mine from fk man. No melting of lenses, the Depo's are glass fronted. I have seen them on eBay before but you end up paying more, but I guess that you get the peace of mind that you can complain to eBay/ PayPal.

I think from fk they were about 120 delivered and a couple week wait. Like I said I had to fix the adjusters but other than that they're good quality.

Yeah Fk are a bit of a joke really. I don't know if I'd deal with them again but now I've got my lights I don't really need too! Order them and check them over before signing with the courier.

I haven't taken any pics of them fitted actually. :/. Pm me your email and I'll try and send you one over at some point this week. It's pretty hectic ATM but I'll try my best.
