    I am looking for the best looking and best quality black headlight assemblies. I have been doing some research on here and other websites and find unclear answers. I love the look of the dual projector LED assemblies but they are a little on the expensive side. I would be okay with the normal projectors. I use LED lights and i want to know what the best option is for the cleanest output. TIA

    I have found these options here for the normal projector headlights. They are barely reviewed and the one with the 3 stars is probably off the table because there is a review for the water getting in the lens. I would like to get the led projectors with the dual projectors (which is the last picture) but the ones I found are upwards of $600 a piece.

    Both sides for around $200? I would expect regular tinted sets in the same ballpark? Any catches?

    That's getting to cheap enough to rate consideration from owners with hazing up issues.

    I found another set on CARiD I'll attach the picture of those. they have better reviews. I am also looking for the smoked taillights, I've seen people getting them on here from a place called Valenti. Where do you find those?

    Here is the image of the other headlights I found:

    The ones in the last pic, the LED's are OEM.. You can scrounge around Ebay and find them, you just need to make sure you get the harness and ballast also. You could always DIY your own using the baked method. I cant use an oven to cook a frozen pizza, so I havent tried this option... LMAO Pretty sure HybridPit will help you source the OEM LED's if you are willing for fork the cash. Prius G headlights are some of the cleanest, but those are JDM and hard to get at a reasonable price.
