Ebay headlights for 2001 maxima

[D_roc]

i want to buy a pair but don't know any one who use them are they any good? i'll be using HID bulbs and are the projector ones better than the OEm ones or worse or should i just go with the reflector ones?thanksD

i think you need projectors for the projector bulbs to work right. lightsout has a nice pair of headlights but i don't think he got'em off ebay. ebay lights usually have a messed up beam pattern and are crappy when driving at night. reflector headlights are nice because they're cheap and spread the beam well on the road. why don't you like stock? just get an hid kit and keep your stock lights.

already have hid's on my stock but they all hazed up, i sanded it and cleaned it up but hazes back in couple of days its a pain and look ugly

Post some pictures of your current headlights. I want to see the haze. Have you tried a plastic cleaner?

[D_roc]

its hard to see unless you come very close and see it but its irritating the hell outta me,i trid to do the tint thing bought it from ebay but its wicked hard to put on and non of the shops around here don't tint headlights

[allensteiner]

it's plastic - will always haze. at least oem has better quality plastic lens, ebay headlights are crap. did you spray clear laquer/sealant after sanding? usually helps. when you just sand it makes tiny scratches that fill in with dirt.

good point

[allensteiner]

won't see **** at night with tinted headlights. just get plastic covers that snap on the light.

walmart has a cheap kit - $20 with sand paper, sealer and instructions. works well.

i used my wife's clear nail polish for my corolla headlights...worked great it takes more than a single sand and clear coat though. i used 3 diferent grades of paper going so fine it felt almost like regular paper for the last run, cleaned them with a degreaser in between to get all the dirt out and last was clean with distilled water - no minerals or other "contaminants", let dry and cover with clear polish. all done in the shade and buffed when clear dried...took me a day but lasted through the winter.
