it's not that the headlight doesn't last, it's the halos that go out. They usually don't last more than 6 months to about a year.

Re: Headlights I'm considering

If you just want black housing headlights take your's apart and paint the housing black. I don't think there are a set of aftermarket headlights anymore that don't have those stupid halos.

Edit: I actually found some pretty nice ones. http://www.procarparts.com/store-det...=onlinestoreDB
If you do get them, get some clear silicone and lay down a bead around the housing so they don't leak. Most aftermarket lighting equipment aren't sealed very well.

Re: Headlights I'm considering

I was never into projector headlights, but they don't look bad. If you like them go for it. Plus if you ever decide to retrofit some HIDs you'll have the right headlights to do it with.

BTW: TYC really does make some of the better lighting equipment on the market.
