eBay lights aren't even true projectors. They're junk.

I believe the items are in Hong Kong, from the ebay post. Made there? Who knows.
These look like Euro Hella or Hella knockoffs, from the pictures. They may be technically projectors, but of what quality? The darker ones look like a fashion accessory, not a headlight.

You know, back in the day, the Russians make a copy of a BMW motorcyce; they took one, disassembled it, then made molds from the parts and castings from the molds. It was a rough approximation of a BMW, they called it a Ural. One generation down, not that bad, but certainly NOT up to BMW quality.

Then the Chinese got hold of a Ural, the Russian copy of a BMW, and did a similar process, disassembling, recasting and remaking it, and voila! a copy of a copy of a 'real' motorcycle, it was less than reliable.

I think of foreign made copies as just that, a copy of an item, with less regard for the original design characteristics and less quality control. They might look the same, but do they work the same?

Just my opinion - If I am wrong, then I apologise and will eat my words.

No offense to foreign members on the board, just to the stuff that perhaps comes out of a factory that made Corvette tail lights last week. And may be making Chrysler 500 headlights next week.
