This statement is completely false. Those headlights are complete garbage and will begin failing in less than a year (usually a few months).
They have no UV protection (after a few months of sun exposure, the clear coat on the lens will start peeling and look terrible), the LEDs (which are only in the turn signal and parking light) fail very quickly, the housings are not sealed in the slightest, they are halogen and every bit of the reflector is plastic (big fire hazard), they don't lock in place very well (hit the brakes too hard and they fly out), they look and feel very cheap...I could go on, but won't.
You've been warned. Buy at your own risk.
