Hi all,

There has been a lot of interest in these headlights since USR started selling them on their website. I forwent the last round of sales they had on these and am considering looking into picking up a pair.

I want to use this thread to compile reviews of these headlights so that anyone interested can sift through one thread instead of searching around. Please only post reviews if you have purchased these and fitted them to your vehicle. I think some great points to hit are:

Material quality:
Lighting performance:
Reliability:
Aesthetics:
Customer service w/ whoever you bought it from:
Length of ownership/service:
Bulbs you're using:
Pictures: (nighttime, daytime, beam, rings, etc.)
Anything else you feel is important for potential adopters to know.

Hopefully we get a good set of responses.

I actually did this in the main depo headlight thread on page 30 around this time last year. But photobucket destroyed most of that post

I've had mine installed since end of December 2016. Running GPThunder halogen bulbs but wish I went with some an HID kit in the low beam.

No problems other than at first, I would get a turn signal malfunction error. The fix was to bend the prongs out on the bulb holder (I just swapped in the holder from my oem lights).

Thanks for the update. They look great! If you had time, do you mind posting a couple pics of the light beam (high/low) in the darkness as well as the high/lows from outside of the car during night time?

I am interestedin the same exact setup you have w/ the Philips bulbs. Curious to see how they look externally and from in the cabin.
