New headlights

94twodoor · Jan 14, 2010

My new headlights came in from www.discountbodyparts.com today. I ordered both LH and RH seperately but shipped together. The part numbers were 1 off of each other. They came in a nice package, but upon looking at them they were different manufacturers. One came from APACHE, and the other from DEPO A. Upon inspection I see that the pass side light is a darker mirror finish than the driver side. It is slight, but yet noticeable. I guess this is what one gets when ordering pieces instead of "paired" items. I thought I was doing good by saving $60 or so, but I guess not.

Just checked bulbs also, they are even different? One is a Sylvania, while the other is a Phillips. Both are 9007, I just hope the light they offer is the same.

The install just took an hour to do. I had some issues removing the old lights. Have to take out the grille, corner markers, then headlights. such a PITA. But it was well worth it. I am getting my billet grille on Monday so the build continues!

check them out tonight and let us know if the light output/color is the same and brighter than the original.

Will do, I am sure it would have to be brighter than my originals because they are milky white lenses. Adjusting these are a lot harder than I thought though. The adjustment screw does not want to move, I had to use a socket on the inside of the engine compartment to adjust them. If I can get someone to tell me how to post pics here I will post the new lights tonight. Last post I had a pic on just showed a red X in a box??

Black outside now. Tested the new lights out and they seem to have a even tone and brighter than stock. I was surprised becasue the 2 bulbs were different manufacturers. All in all, not a bad savings.

yeah the headlights suck to replace. I hated doing mine. To post pics set up a photobucket account and load the pics into that and then just copy and past the IMG code into the post.

I had a set of the Depo's, they were a great light but the lens came loose after 2 months. I had them returned with no questions asked....but the 3 replacement sets they gave me afterwards were a no-name brand that plain didn't fit because the quality was so bad. Keep an eye out on the bottom on the lenses, that's where mine started coming apart.

I just put the Billet grille on yesterday as well, still waiting on my TRS windshield decal.

Aright, wtf am I doing wrong now? I posted to photbucket and copied the "code". Why are my pics not showing up?

Copy and paste the IMG code. It should work without having to do anything else
