For the people that installed the "eagle eye" headlights...



...How are they? How is the quality, does it provide good lighting at night? Have they broke over time? Are they worth it?

Hello mirceaculita.. welcome!

I have same kind of headlights but Chinese version and not Taiwan made Eagle eye version.

Eagle eye headlights are ok ok kind of stuff, quality is strictly average. There are 2 big disadvantages of these (Eagle eye) headlights.

1. DRL's are not proper DRL's, they turn on only when side lights/ park lights are turned on. They will not turn with ignition on.

2. The low beam housing is unixenon and not bixenon, means there is no retractable shutter inside the housing to work also as high beam when high beam is turned on.

I've installed 50w HID setup in lowbeam and 55w Phillips Halogen bulbs in high beam.. I'm very happy with the output. Night like a day

I would suggest you, to buy Chinese version any day over Eagle eye brand, better built with proper DRL's and proper bixenons.

Completed 4 years with these headlights, working perfectly to date without any issues.

I hope my information helps you to understand better and decide.

Unfortunately it's illegal here to fit bixenons to a car that didn't come with them from the factory. For an unrelated matter can you post the link from where you bought your units?

These kind of headlights can be used with proper alignment of beam pattern without glaring the on coming traffic.

I've seen many strange headlights with wierd and glaring light output from many car manufacturers and it's perfectly legal..

In romania you have to have oem wiring and instalation, headlight washers then go an have the lights checked and tested to then be able to go the the "DMV" equivalent and pay them $30 to have them(i.e. bi-xenon headlights) written in the car's papers. Skip a step and if you get caught you will lose the cars registration, get a fine and have to change the lights before being able to register the car again and drive it. This is because people started fitting xenon lights to halogen headlight with no lamp and blind people on the road. Also they would use chinese wiring and hardware that would sometimes catch on fire.

Thanks for the link tho. I'm sure I'll get them and register them.

Yes, I totally agree with you.. people do all kind of stupid things without considering the risk involved.

The headlights from the link I've sent are of excellent quality and work perfectly if you install properly with correct selection of bulbs. They are plug and play.. no wiring change whatsoever.

If it's possible for you to register and use them legally, then they are the best and cheap alternative to OEM bixenons.

Good luck
