Has anybody tried these headlamps out? How are they in comparison to the original headlamps. Thank in advance.

Oh? What's up with your headlights? do you have any pics of them on the car? They seemed alright when I shipped them out.

no pictures yet...to be perfectly honest with you chris, i think the seal broke on the drivers side already...you can see what looks like condensation inside...i really don't think that it is because of the job you did (which was exceptional and it looks great!) i just think that if i would have gotten the ford ones, it would have come out better....fwiw, the bat ones seem to be a tiny bit smaller as well as being a lesser quality (i of course notice it)...overall i will have to say thumbs up to chris hightower's work (i must say GREAT WORK again) but thumbs down to the bat selling "non-ford" replacements... frown

I'm a bit dissapointed, I was going to buy them. frown

Guess I'll have to get 'em from Fordpartsonline for $156 a pop.

I bought an aftermarket replacement for my broken drivers side one. I cannot get it to align, it does not have the same beam pattern as stock, and I think I have moisture in it......buy stock replacement.
