New headlights!!!!!

So I just got my new headlights and can't wait to install them.
They are the smoked lense version with black trim of course and built in LEDs in the side markers and possibly an LED accent strip.
It took me a month to get them but it was well worth it.
Comes with incandescent bulbs and wiring harness so yes you'll have to swap over your bulb and ballast. The best part....i got mine for $460.00 for the pair n.i.b. You read right $460 shipped!!! The company is spyder.

When I first called spyder to inquire about them because I was skeptical of the price, they told me the only supplier that sold them was autoanything.com. however, I ordered mine through keystone since I get parts from them for 10% above cost.

Have you checked into the legality of running tinted headlights in your area? Seems like a magnet for a ticket/inspection.

Update:

Finally got a chance to upload the outcome. I have Hella H7 bulbs for the highbeams. Does anyone know of an H7 led that has a low profile base that is actually bright? There's not enough room for the water tight cap with most LEDs that have a large heatsink/fan.

Tint on headlights

This is just my personal opinion and should not be taken as legal advice. If the capacity of OEM lights has been altered or diminished and the automobile is involved in a collision at night insurance carriers can deny coverage. This is becoming more common as it is a easy out for Insurance companies.

I don't think the lenses are tinted on these lights, it's the interior of the housings that are dark and that is why they look tinted.

However, I have seen the beam shots of these lights, and the light pattern is horrible. I love the way these look, but the OEMs just perform "correctly". As is usually the case, aftermarket lights look nicer, but have poor performance at night.
