JY Projector Headlight replacement

Hey all, long time since I have been on here. That is probably a good thing. I have spent the last two hours researching headlight replacements and have learned a lot. Has any one used these JY projector replacements or dealt with Andys Auto Sport? (there were only four searches and not much mentioned about their products or service)

LHP-X500JM-TM JY Projector Headlights - Black at Andy's Auto Sport

What is the fit and finish like? I have two 2003 E-53s, a 4.4 bought new and now has 155K miles. I have restored the headlights lens 3 times and they just are not lasting between restorations so was thinking of replacing the entire housing. New OEM units are over $700 per pair and that just seems outrageous.

My other X5 is a 4.6 with a 131K miles. The lens and bulbs on it are like new. So I was thinking since I replaced the tail light assemblies awhile back on it with LEDs I was thinking of moving the headlights from it over to the 4.4 and replacing the 4.6 with one of these projector replacements. I will be selling the 4.6 in the next six months. It has much more aftermarket mods on it so makes more sense keeping the 4.4 bone stock. It might make selling the 4.6 easier if it looks a little more modern.

Thanks in advance for thoughts or ideas.
