Very well put. Many people on here do that all the time without fully reading.

And oh yeah, I bought the one of the sets of eBay for $35. The link that Goonz had posted, were sold out. I signed in to buy a set and they were gone. I checked the next day, and they relisted 1 more set. So I didn't wait, I bought them right away.

This is not directed at you...but why should it matter where you buy them  I would not post or buy them if they where not a quality product. When others are looking for the same or similar why does it matter if they come from Pep Boys, Wal-Mart or any other retail store. I have no problem telling people where you can get them...that is the point here, to help out others. That's the problem around here, if you don't pay ridiculous over inflated prices from some internet supplier then suddenly the product is "junk", "rice", "gay" etc. I for one have been driving and working on cars for about 28 years and have purchased more replacement parts from Pep Boys then any other auto retailer. They are close and most of the time have the parts I need at a reasonable price. Sure they also sell some junk but so does every other retail store and internet site. They make most of their money of the overpriced junk. I suppose if the local Wal-Mart got a deal on PIAA's and sold them for $75 a set I guess they wouldn't be the same PIAA's you get when you pay ~$150 and they too would be "junk", "rice", "gay" etc. 
I guess I'll really never understand the logic of some around here

everyone knows that the 3 pep boys are "gay", and therefore everything they sell is by association "gay" as well

Yeah, seriously. If you don't like them then don't look at them.
and oh yeah, my SVT is far from being "riced out" and so now that I'll have halos, my SVT is rice? Just because everyone with a Honda has them means that they are bad? umm, no. Let them all get halos and have the rest of the car look like crap, I don't care about them. Mine looks good and thats the end of it.
