    Look nice, definetely not the price. That amount of money would be better spent on a new set of rims or a bodykit, in my opinion.

    If I had the average looking reflector lights of an exec or equivalent I'd definitely consider a set of these, but I still think SS ones look better.

    They look great, but as mentioned above, little too high of price to really be considered unless I had a few lazy hundred (and who does lol)

    I was not expecting that. They actually look pretty darn good.

    I'd be interested to know how the DRL part of the light is wired, or if it needs separate wiring installed. But $500pr of new headlights is pretty good pricing too. I just can't justify that expense when I need a new exhaust first.
    I aim to misbehave.

    Considering a genuine set of SS/Calais lights is around the $600 mark from dealers, I think these are a great alternative. Big fan myself, probably end up with a set soon.

    Agreed with GAMBLR there cheaper then genuine and look great too in my opinion. But would be better if the price was lower :P

    Edit: I Can't find any pics of the lights fitted to a vz

    I saw a set on a VE today, first ones I've seen in person. The photos don't do them justice, they look much MUCH worse in real life.

    With all the attention being given to the DRL's, I wonder how effective the headlights are? They don't look like much.

    If it wasn't so obvious they were LED's then maybe. For now though they look like an after thought or an attempt to cash in on impressionable people.

    Calaber, one would assume that they've had some testing done. Maybe not to the extent of Holden themselves, but these don't appear to be cheap replacements like some of the Altezza lights. I don't know, I'll report back when I've road tested them :P

    they look alright-ish and perhaps a good upgrade from the standard Execcie headlight but its each to their own, not something I could justify $500 for when the black SS/Calais genuine ones cost that and look a bucket load better IMHO

    Iv got them on my car atm. They are very easy to install, just clean the area then stick them on pretty much.

    I did mine by wiring them up with my fog lights so I can use em during the day aswell without headlights.
