Aftermarket headlight assy’s....

There was a thread (closed now) about someone that wanted to do a group buy on aftermarket headlights.

I know the thread is closed but I want to warn anyone thinking of buying aftermarket headlights to see them in person first.

This week my shop installed a set of these style aftermarket headlights in a 350Z. We spent over 4 hours fitting them and even then, they still weren’t a 100% perfect fit.

I’m not saying that the brand in question is good or bad but after being in this business for 28 years, I can tell you that most of these aftermarket headlight assy’s suck in fitment.

Personally, I love the look of them and if they fit, I’d install them on my own car. I can’t wait till the OP to get them and give his review. I hope they fit and work great but from past experience, more often not...

Like I said, no disrespect to the OP that was interested in buying them, ya’ll may want to see how they fit first.

Mark
