ditto here... I bought Spyder CCFL projector replacements. Fit is decent (less than perfect, but only OCD will notice). Light is like 7 days in a row... WEEK! On install I popped one of my 'ballast's' early on, AND, my drivers side low beam projector (besides being super dim) is upside down. AND, while attempting to raise both sets of aiming adjustments to max resulted in stripping the drivers side out.... so I still have a high beam pointing at the ground (on the plus side, the upside down low makes plenty of light above two feet, good thing I have decent fog lights).

considering buying another pair versus paying double for OEM's that I can add CCFL's to. (mine are Halogen, not HID). Haven't committed yet, we shall see.
