Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)As my original headlight assemblies on my 1998 Acura CL had become faded and yellowed, I'd decided to replace them. They just looked bad. The rest of the car was holding up very well, but the headlights detracted from the overall appearance. Replacing with original Acura parts was incredibly expensive, more than I wanted to spend, so I searched the aftermarket for a more reasonable alternative. These no-brand-name headlight assemblies being sold by Amazon seemed to fit the bill. They looked OK in the pictures, said nice things about themselves and the price was right. I decided to take a shot. In a nutshell, I am very pleased. While the "fit" is not quite up to Acura specs - my installer had a heck of a time getting them in (the screw holes didn't quite line up and it took some finaggelin' on his part to get the job done), but after spending some extra time (and time is money) doing the install, they look almost perfect. If you're really looking them over critically, you'll notice that the surrounding assembly gasket doesn't precisely fit in the assembly opening in places. There's only about 1/8 inch gap or so, not much. Overall, to casual observation, they look fine. The illumination they provide is a bit funky, beams all over the place, but a great improvement over the output of my yellowed originals. The low beams are much brighter, so much more so that I was certain that oncoming cars would be flashing their brights at me, but this hasn't happened, not once, to my great relief. Apparently such brightness is normal; I just wasn't used to it. The brights light up everything, including the undersides of trees. (perhaps I'm in need of some adjustment?) Anyway, after all is said and installed, I'm quite pleased. The car's appearance has been greatly improved and the illumination provided, though a bit funky (which I got used to) has been improved also. If your headlight assemblies are faded, yellowed or just plain worn-out looking, these are a worthy replacement, all things considered.
