Like the title says, im about to buy some black housing headlights for my eg coupe.. I've been finding pictures of some that fit really nice, and others that don't line up right at all, corners sticking way out and whatnot.. Can anyone recommend me a good site where they've had good luck with good fitment?? They are all over ebay, anyone had good/bad luck with buying them off ebay? Thanks!
Need a recommendation on where to buy eg black housing headlights

ebay is a no-go my friend..im sorry dont even dare to go there..
you'll get crappy fitment, foggy lights at night and just wont be happy overall.
if anything, buy legit black housing from a JDM shop, or diy! here's the link,
its for 6th gen but im sure you can get a hint on how to do yours as well.
good luck!

5th gen lights on ebay are a little differnt, than 6th gens, the 5th gens on ebay are glass,unlike the 6th gens which are plastic, i bought a set way back when i had a hatch and they were actually really nice.
why not diy your headlights?

do that if you don't mind moisture getting into your headlamps later on. I wouldn't recommend ebay either.
as long as he seals it correctly, he should not run into this..
i triple-checked my sealant when putting my diy ctr headlights
back together, just need alot of patience and you'll do fine.
mine never fogged up or got moisture inside
i would just buy them instead of the diy, but if your current headlights are in great shape, it wouldnt hurt to try the diy. my headlights are foggy and yellowish, i clean it up every few months, i rather buy new ones.
