Also, I heard you can buy the non-motorized ones, and just swap the motor off the oem ones onto the new ones, for alot cheaper?

Anyways, I just bought a pair of HID bulbs before I cracked my headlight, now I'm looking for the most cost efficient way to fix it.
Don't go too cheap. You get what you pay for mostly.

THe one thing i would be nervous about is the quality of the plastic on the non oem ones. I would think they would get cloudy easier...

Interesting point, you could always add a clear film though.

So I found the HID DEPO headlights on EBAY and there is a $200 difference between the LED and non LED rings? Is it worth it?

Eh, probably not. Go for the non LED to save some cash.

I have the Depo's..Good quality overall-the projectors aren't PERFECT and the halos are led which is fairly week compared to CCFL. Pretty happy overall considering the price.

I bought projector headlights in black of ebay. they look much nicer that the OEM and are about the same brightness as the OEM xenon lights. they also have halo's which are CCFL.
I bought them for about 200$, great quality
