The company sucks. They have ****ty customer service, they dont ship on time hardly ever. When they do AFTER you dispute them, they normally charge more for shipping.
The products they use are inferior, as the halo's almost never work, the ballasts are cheap & if they still do they use the stock housing & just retrofit the Xenons to it. As for the housing getting messed up. It normally doesnt happen because the lights do not last that long. Either the cops will pull you over for excessive light output (VERY BRIGHT white light), or yo uwill replace them because they keep breaking.

DOT approved doesnt mean anything so do not let that fool you.

i take it these are the same ones too?

LOL...you ever walk into a bathroom stall & see all kinds of **** in the toilet. Well this is...that.
It is still ****, just from a different person...LOL

Best way I can describe it.

Wait what? They are projector lights that do NOT include HID lamps. There are no ballasts.

I do question the fit of any ebay headlamps.

Yeay they are supposed to. They are drop in & go headlights(havent we all heard that before). The H1 bulbs are Xenons. But I do notice they do not show a ballast for them....humm. I wonder if they still put them INSIDE the light(edit...put them in the housing)
You can see the little cheap ballasts attached to the sides for the LEDS. Looks like the way they did it has changed over the last few years but it is still the same ****.

Here is an idea for ya's. Contact them...LOL, ask them who the manufacturer is & the part number. Then try to look it up. I know they have a number & something on the lense but I cannot find that part number anywhere. Plus they have no way to get them aimed properly.

Mind you if you get a set & they do happen to work then great. But I am just saying not to expect anything good when they arrive.

i guess this is for the 5dr only

H1 bulbs are not necessarily xenon. H1 is a shape for the socket/bulb.
Also Xenon bulbs do not need ballasts because they are not HID bulbs.
You also cannot but a ballast inside of the headlamp, it needs an external location.
And you can adjust them. Look at the 2 screws on the picture that shows the back of the headlamp. There is a screw in opposite corners of each projector.

what i don't get is just because u or someone u know didn't have very good luck with the company, doesn't mean there products are garbage. with most aftermarket headlights HID bulbs are usually to long for the housing there going in unless u want to make custom brackets, so i wasn't even thinking of going HID. my friend got a set for her civic almost a yr ago and everything still works perfect, the adjustment was a little off but i was able to aim them, and the halos are still as bright as they were when they were installed. and its nice to see a company finally release something that looks pretty decent for the aveo.

Well hopefully someone here who gets them will report on the quality and fitment. Maybe a couple of pics too. I definitely want a set, I hope its not a limited supply, money is tight right now.

[steveyohman2319]

but i thought our sockets were h4's? it says those are h1.

[mkt8891]

yea thats true, if you look at the wiring there's an H4 connector that goes to the individual lights, so no hacking the original wiring
