I think the craze is still here, but not too many people are willing to spend almost 2,000 for headlights.

And that's just for 1! So I'm thinking of buying some euro's in the next 3-4 weeks, then selling my oem's. Is that how most people have done it? Or do people hang on to their oem's?

Can anyone answer these couple of questions for me?

yea, at the current time i can't bring myself to spend $1500+ on a set of headlights.

I really wanted to get rid of the amber, but couldnt justify the nearly $2000 purchase price. Also I have a customer that has replaced his Amber with the euros on two different cars, and both times they showed up broken internally. Not worth the hassle IMO.

I put on hunters overlays and have been happy.
