I have a headlight question

Was looking at new headlights because one of mine gets condensation in it almost every night. I saw a few projectors on eBay and didn't know if it was a good idea or not. I do have trouble seeing at night and was thinking that projectors would help since I do not have HIDs. I found these and wanted to know thoughts on them please
2006 s with stock halogens, Phillips bulbs.

I have seen these fleaBay ones & to me they sure look like they lack quality. I'd try resealing your oem ones.

I think that the one from Spyder are better quality than the 3 light one shown above, in my opinion it looks much better too.
I don't think that I can pass judgment by just looking at them, someone with them installed will give you a better feedback on them.

I want to get the black ones myself I agree with Saltysalt they look good
