Cheap Ebay headlights
Anyone buy those cheap headlights from Ebay? I'm talking about the ones that have the "city" blue light installed, cost about $5 with $20 shipping. I'm milling over the idea of changing my headlights and everytime I go to the 'bay, I see these pop up alot.

Yep. I bought a set a few years back for a C4 that I no longer own. They didn't work worth a $***. The reflectors inside are so randomly placed, light just scatters all over. Couldn't see anything at night with them.

I had them, would not buy them again. They will break when the lights are on and your in the rain. (the heat builds up and when the cool rain hits they break) I went to auto-zone and got some silverstars. They be a little heavier than the plastic ones, you have better vision with these.

Almost my favorite subject with Corvettes. Driving with the lights on most of the time, 50 miles a day, I have made quite a few headlight changes. One of my first changes was to Sylvania SilverStars and then Sylvania Cool Blues. These two offered a big upgrade.
Hella's 200mm headlights are a big upgrade from the above two Sylvania bulbs.
