I have them installed, but mine is OEM version not the smoked aftermarket one. Get smoked version if you only care about the look; otherwise, I would strongly suggest you to go for OEM version.

Didn't the GD say they were both made at the same factory? The fit isn't that good either way you go but they look great.

I have seen both in person. I have to admit the smoked one looks better, but it just doesn't perform as good as OEM version at night...



Look at the cutoff! This is something you couldn't get from smoked version.

they said that they are made by the same company, but only the oem ones are stamped with the logo. they are not DOT approved becuase they are right hand drive head lamps. light output with halogens are pretty weak. gaps are to be expected when installing these. just need to fit in some foam weatherstripping or weld.

LiuSpeed sells them for about $280 shipped takes 7-14 days as they are imported and ship directly to you from taiwan. he usually runs group buys at around $260 shipped express for oem style and regular shipping for smoked.

That's not what I read. I remember that the cheap knock offs were made right hand drive and the legit cefiros were were LHD.
