Need feedback on Angel eyes ASAP!!!!

Ok so, we all know that the OSS Design lights are more than 500. I was looking at some sites and I came across the same thing from umnitza. Do you guys think these are legit things and will actually look and perform just as good as OSS?

Heres the link:

part of the OSS price includes installation. if you buy the umnitza set, you'll have to pay a professional to take apart your headlights, install the AE's, then seal your headlights correctly (i've opened up headlights before and it's a HUGE pain to do it yourself, and you probably won't seal it correctly). it'll end up being approximately the same price so you might as well just go for the OSS set.

Ya but if you think about it..I live in L.a., and OSS is in Florida, it'll be much faster and cheaper if I buy it and take it to someone around here. And I dont think someone is gonna charge 250+ to do that.

You'd be surprised what somebody will charge you for it. Also, I hear its a pretty big PITA to wire them up and seat them correctly.

i would make sure u could find a person that will do it before u buy them. opening and resealing a headlight is a tough job to get right and if done wrong have fun with the condensation build up.

i dont think 250 is that much of a stretch to open up and properly seal headlights, and you won't even know if it'll be done right. with OSS, you know it'll be done right.

If you are going to do the OSS style setup, get it from OSS. He has done a ton of these installs and it's worth it to have it done by someone who knows what they are doing.
