    Are they LED?

    Am I experiencing another issue of chrome on my work laptop with adblock not showing your link?

    Find out on the next episode of Dragonball Z.

    I've been curious about those. I'm concerned with how the light output of the lowbeams compares to stock. I really like the pattern of the stock lights.

    Well here's the link you guys can check them out yourself. They're on ebay but I'm not allowed to post links, so just type this into the ebay search:

    Black-2012-2014-Toyota-Prius-C-Projector-Headlights-w-Daytime-LED-Running-Light

    Im going to do a review and hopefully they last.

    Just hooked them up. Everything was plug and play. Took me around 5 minutes to remove and install the headlight.

    Do these still have the cutoff on the low beams?

    they look good.

    Did you install HIDs? Can you post a picture of the output of the low beams against a wall? Thanks

    so...how is it wired (drl led & highbeams??? since highbeams are the drl on the oem housing) and turned on???

    the led light bar and highbeam drl turn on w/ drl or just the led light bar? (so a relay somewhere in the wiring)

    just curious.

    hopefully let us know how they hold up (maybe run them through a car wash once they're installed to see how airtight they are)

    The ebay post claims that. They are SPYDER brand headlights. However, the DLR do not show the LED strips for me. Perhaps I wired it wrong. Im not sure.

    It's a plug and play kit, all i did was connect everything, no cutting or complicated wiring required. I couldn't get the LED lights to work with DLR though, im not sure if I plugged them in wrong or what

    Bumper cover is easy, however I already had the bumper cover off since I was repairing my car from an accident
