I bought a $65 pair off ebay and all I can say is that they were the biggest peices of crap. they arrived without instructions(may be a problem for a first time installer)and without wiring harness. In all of my infinate wisdom(stupidity) I installed them without testing them first and found that 1 of the large rings didnt light up very bright and 1 inverter would only light 1 ring instead of 2. After emailing the ebay seller I was told their "warranty" isn't valid unless installed by authorized shop. Some bitching back and forth yielded 1 new ring and a new inverter for only $10 shipping, unfortunately package only shows up with 1 ring (no inverter) and its just as dim as the orginal one they sent. Never recieved the inverter either, just kinda gave up on them and bit the bullet and bought Umnitza. Better kit BY FAR! Everything you need is in there, no guessing, no dim lights or half assed inverters. I can't say what brand is better but I can definately say DON'T GET THE EBAY CRAP! If you do want ebay crap I will sell you my old kit for $40 +$25 shipping(leave me positive feedback) and you need to find a new inverter, all 5 of the rings work, lol.
seriously, save yourself the headache and buy a good quality kit, it's no fun opening up the headlights twice to fix the F'up from the first time round.

What options to I have if my 03 doesn't already have OEM Angel eyes? Do any of these companies offer any type of easy conversion kits? I read somewhere I have to bake the lights in the oven?
