thats kinda strange that they didn't make the lenses right. is it a brand name company? id see if i could return them. there should be a high beam and a low beam bulb, not 2 highs or 2 lows.

they are actually some crap made in Taiwan. so its not a huge suprise that they dont work, but its a suprise that the company "hasnt had any complaints yet". i just sent them back for a refund about 15 minutes ago. so everything should be fine. but i gotta buy new ones now and i dont know where. i have to make sure that they will work this time. do you have any suggestions for a place to buy them? or a company that makes them?

I think walmart / target both sell silverstars 9006 and 9005 size. I have the 55W ones in my reguler (non highbeam/drl) outer headlights. I think silverstar makes dual mode ones 9006? also. My 55W ones are noticably brighter once I got everything lined up (via the adjustment screws).
EDIT: the company would be Sylvania (spelling?)

i meant the housings, not the bulbs. i already got my bulbs, and they are silverstars from walmart...ha ha. i just need to get the halo/projector housings that use 9005's and 9006's, not 2 9005's

Expect to pay a decent amount of money for new headlights (especially speciality ones). Ebay is a great thing but it's a gamble if you don't know what to look for within the ad they have there. I'll post a topic about what to look for in Ebay in the 'Off Topic' section. Hope you find some that you like. Good Luck.

When I had my Avenger, the dealership wanted $300 per STOCK headlight. I was lucky enough and found a good company on Ebay that sold the pair for $300. I was just saying to expect the worst, hope for the best. Hope you find some at a good price.
