Aren't the OEM headlights (projectors) better than the eBay ones?

I've always had problems with various halo headlights from eBay; I've bought 3-4 different kinds just to see.

I think I am going to throw my OEM ones back on and install the Oracle Halos.

???

Getting back on this thread.
Everything is working. Bad wiring on the halo, one LED burned out, replaced.
But all halos are only working at engine start. On battery, only one in each light is working.
Why?

I've owned about 3-4 sets of different projector halos and LED lights from eBay and they all had similar problems. The LED's would usually go out first and then the angel eyes. I just said the h3ll with them and ordered some Smoked DEPO headlights and called it a day. Way better than that eBay stuff.

I have an extra set of those DEPO headlights. Brand new, in box, never used. $140 shipped!

Nice, but I like/need black ones.

Those are black...

They are the best for light output as well. The eBay ones are horrible when it comes to actually seeing things because you can't adjust the level of the beam.

Those are high quality though. The ones we are talking about are the cheap eBay ones that have them pre-installed.

Those are the same exact thing (same makers and color and everything), except those fit your SUV rather than the ones I posted which are for the Denali. Get those for sure!
