Hyper White blubs off EBAY???? Quality??

I've been thinking about buying the Hyper Whites by PIAA because my my high beams don't work and i like the white look and also its safer on the open roads. I see these cheap lights that fit my 99 max but aren't PIAA of course. What is the deal with these lights? Are they crappy ? Will they die out faster? Or does PIAA have the ***** to charge us 40-50 more dollars?

Thanks,
Josh

if it says "PIAA STYLE" then it's fake. but generally PIAA products are expensive cuz its brand. and personally i haven't hear too much negative feedbacks about PIAA. if the price if reasonable with you then go for it

Personally, I like the Xenon bulbs JCWhitney offers - just got some high beams and H3's for my fogs. they're blue bulbs but they shine basically the same as the HID low beams I got. Havent taken pictures of the highs yet. Also, for my corner lights I just picked up some bulbs from Wal-mart which actually match the HID's very nicely as well! See, no need to spend lots of money on PIAA, just buy the $9.99 ones from JCWhiteny

which ones are these? i can't find any 9004's like that at JCWhitney for any cheaper than $30 or $40.

Provide a link?

thanks
