Chrome jdm winjet head lights
 
hi all, this is my first post on this forum, but long time reader.
I have searched all over YouTube and forums about the chrome winjet jdm replicas but cannot decide if I should pull the trigger. They look great but there really isn't much said about the quality or how they have held up..
I heard a bit about the condensation but again no follow up from anyone..
Anyways those who have them would you please let me know if it's a good buy or not?
Thank you!

I have the black ones install only for a week so far in heavy rain and use they have great light output and the DRLs look awesome. Also I have no condensation yet

Hello Swervin_shervin ...... and WELCOME to posting!

Sorry, I have no information on those headlights ...... cause there ain't nothing wrong with the OEM headlights on my car ...... and I'm old with poor night vision.......:popcorn:

If I overdrive my headlights at night, mrs humfrz just screams and I slam on the brakes ...... :slap:

But don't you like the swag of DRLs that are LEDs? Surely MrsHumfrz can appreciate that

Amazon it came in a massive box too so I did FedEx pick up at office well package as well, install is easy just look up several videos on how to install them and remove the front bumpers all you need is a Phillips head, 10 mm socket with an extension and a flathead screwdriver and patience with some of the pop clips. I had a friend who had already installed the chrome version do my black ones with me we were done in less than Two hours. Also it is imperative you aim the headlights properly or get a mechanic to do them real quick otherwise you'll either blind people or not see anything at all they came misaligned with my order.

Nah, not really. If she can't see it from inside the car, when we are taking a drive, she don't much care. The only two lights she pays attention to, is the one that blinks when I leave my turn signal on (her comment ...."ya. I know, you are going to turn sometime, but in the meantime, why don't you turn your turn signal off" .... :sigh:).

The other light is when the rev limit light/shift light, blinks and makes a sound, her comment is "I thought this was going to be a nice relaxing, Sunday drive... just who are we racing...that old lady in the SUV back there"?.... :slap:

:bonk:
