    OE units are stupid expensive, and even used ones that are cheaper than new aftermarket need work done. at minimum a lens refurb. I'll likely be getting the most basic units with the easiest install umnitza has to offer (facelift non-xenon car), hopefully on a Black Friday sale.

    thanks for pointing me in the right direction but I'm a noob on lighting and I can't really figure out what I need for my specific vehicle. what's the difference between

    and

    https://www.umnitza.com/headlights-p...ngel-eyes.html

    is it just the facelift style vs old style?

    I'm not sure I care, this is my "beater" that I'm pretty much trying to get fixed up to sell or only drive in the winter, so I'm looking for mostly the cheapest option set I can get. I may just end up calling you guys tomorrow.
