Upgraded my old and crusty headlights, to new OEM style TYC lights. It instantly improved the look of the vehicle and its safety and visibility! Definitely worth the $80 CAD investment. Product used: TYC # 20601400 (driver) and #20601300 (passenger) mine came with bulbs pre-installed.
Bought these for my 05 and they turned out nice.
For that price, you’re looking at the same cost as a set of TYC headlights, which are great quality headlights.
I had a 2014 ST1 and I got a pair of those Eagle Eye headlights from ebay for $300. Ran them for over 100K miles before I sold it. The LED's never burned out and the only water ingress issue I had was because I baked and separated the housing to black out the reflectors and screwed up the plastic so it didn't seal right again after that. I will say they got foggy after like 4-5 years but I just sanded and re-cleared them and they were good as new again
TYC or Depo are OE replacement lamps, they're good enough for insurance and/or body shops to use instead of OE. The difference is the lens material, it's a thinner, lower grade plastic.
Looking some more and I ran across TYC brand and that may be what I have in my Suburban. Anyone have any experience with TYC regardless the year?
That said, I have used eBay headlight before, specifically the brand Eagle Eyes (for my daily Camry, not Taco). Things to be concerned about is mainly the lens to housing seal. A lot of cheaper lights will allow condensation to get inside the lenses. Quick fix though.
I have TYC headlights on my P2. One of them hasn't got a perfect seal and is fogging up after carwashes so I drive a little bit with the lid off. I got it exchanged through warranty but the issue persisted and since the entire front has to come off, I've just decided to live with it. Otherwise they work as OEM
TYC is as bad as it gets.
Don't get TYC. My beam pattern is poor, and I had cast metal parts inside the headlights get soft and bend from the heat.
