I would pass. Lower tabs missing on both, and apparently the one has a seal leak because it has water spots on the inside of the lens. With that lower tab missing, I'm pretty sure it won't align properly and it might shake more as you drive.

Do you think it would worth it then for me to buy that set and mix it with my current headlights (use old housing and new bracket and lens)

Not sure, that's your decision to make. That seems like a lot to just swap over parts...

Here is the thing, I graduated college and got a nice stable job, I have money, I want to mess with headlights as less as possible.

I am ready to pay extra for trading with my headlights. Technically anyone can take my headlights and fix them up, I just don't want to waste time on it.

I dont have any of my lower tabs either and i have no problems with them. Just make sure they clip in tight into the plastic tabs on the bottom.

Mine work fine, the only thing i did was add some thin foam tape to make the clip on the bottom fit more snug. Plus even if mine had them I wouldn't use them as i take out my headlights frequently.

Cool, thanks a lot man, I guess I'll get them and in worst case scenario (if I won't go securely in a car) I'll just switch out the housing with old one. Thanks again.

Sure, i'll let you know, but most likely i'll sell it by parts only if i end up switching the housing.
