    They suck. Go with Hellas if you want to spend the money, Autopals if you want good quality at a good price.

    I just bought autopals off ebay and the guy had 99.6 percent positive feedback and they were 40 dollars.

    I got mine off ebay. They work great, and great quality! However, I did need to have the seller replace one because the factory glued the lens on upside down... That is not really the seller's fault, but it may say something about their supplier.

    I had the autopals, the chrome reflector started to fade after a year and a half. I've had the hellas for about 6 years and are just starting to flake

    The lens was glued on upside down, the diffusion pattern is different. Even though the housing can be mounted more than one way, there is only one correct way. Having HIDs, it's crucial or you will blind oncoming traffic.
