Those with euro black headlights....

[Cobreezy]

Love them or hate them?:shrug: They look pretty much like OEM, except for the side marker reflectors are clear, not amber. I believe the lens is not smoked. Those that have them on their ride can vouch for that. I'm looking to get a pair from stangmods.com because they're having a sale up to 01/31/09. 6.5% off sale!:banana: The package i'm looking at comes with the euro black hedlights and chrome/amber signal bulbs. $196 delivered to my door. Worth it?

I love them and want some, they sell on ebay for about 90 bucks. Im curious how good the quality is

I bought my set from americanmuscle.com when I had a 99 Cobra (chrome headlights). I changed them over to my Terminator because I don't like the amber corners. I haven't had any problems with them and I run 6000k plug and play HIDs.

Do they fog up at all?

 

[Slow99x]

Nope. I've had my car outside in all types of weather (I live in Chicago) and no signs of fogging.

I also have the ones from americanmuscle.com and the drivers side housing just started to fog up... I've had them on the car for 6 months maybe?

I've read that ALL aftermarket headlight housings need to be sealed with silicone on the seams, or they will eventually leak, and have water , or fog inside.

definetly seal them, the joints are crap.

That's what i'm going to do before I install them. It is reccomended by americanmuslce.com. :rockon:

I never sealed mine

Worst case scenerio you can drill a 1/64" hole in the corner (NEVER NOTICEABLE) and it fixes the fogging problem.

My stock headlight on my passenger side has started to fog. Could i just drill that hole and it will fix it? I've took a hair dryer to it and tried to dry it up but it keeps coming back.

Back in my "working for a tuner company" days, we drilled no less than 100 headlights w/ fogging problems, and after that they never came back.

Speaks for itself if you ask me... :shrug:

Sweet. Thanks.

i've read somewhere that putting the housings on a cookie sheet and sticking them in the oven @ 100F for a few minutes will soften the glue to the point you can pull them apart with a little help from a table knife. I dont know if the aftermarket headlamp assy's are glued or just snapped together. Whatever the case may be, be very careful of the clips on the housings. Clear silicon, applied correctly, will seal the headlamps indefinitely.
