    When your buying stuff off eBay you got to be carefull because most of the stuff on eBay is not quality.

    I try to stick with housings that at least have glass lenses. I like this site.

    http://www.rallylights.com/

    I buy my replacement bulbs there because they carry Hella long life bulbs which are cheaper and last longer than GE, Wagner, Phillips, etc. The housings they offer ARE high quality, but you're going to pony up a few more bucks than the eBay variety requires. They won't leak, turn cloudy, or give you a lousy light pattern, though.

    Re: custom black headlights.

    I saw a video on youtube where a guy had put those in a few months ago...

    Here's another video of a person who put them in (from 3Geez) that I found while I was searching for that other video I found before. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lYRNa...yer_detailpage
    I'll post that video if I can find it.

    thanks for finding this. they look kinda cool. im sure they arent bright enough for driving at night, but on an all black 3g with blacked out taillights i think it would suit it nicely.

    I actually don't think they look too bad... I agree they probably aren't very bright for night driving, but then again, my stock headlight bulbs are about as bright as those free bonus flashlights that occasionally come in the packs of batteries, so I doubt these black conversions could be any dimmer...
