I would stay away from the "Vortex" kit on eBay. The lights used in that kit are not of the best quality I have heard... similar to the $40 lights from Autozone or Wal-Mart.

Also, I have the PIAA kit on my car...

But, knowing what I know now, I'd highly consider the Hella 90mm over the PIAA lights. Cheaper and better suited for use as headlights

I put my lights in in Dec 2002 and I have not burnt out a bulb yet.
With the stock sealed beam I was replacing the low beams every two months....

I have had my car since '99 and only changed a high beam back in 2000... I guess I'm one of the lucky ones'...

Now that I said this, watch all my lights go out....
