Good luck with the sales.

    Here are some questions:

    1. Reading the site it says they utilize H1 bulbs in the projector part. is this true?

    2. What high beam bulb do these sets use?

    3. Do these use a similar bracket to the factory headlights? Looks like they don't from the rear photo provided. Spyder auto made a mistake in this department due to the fact that a replacement bracket can not be purchased.

    4. Do these use all of the factory bulbs? 3357 and 194 for the signal bulbs.

    5. What does the cut off look like on these projectors? Pics would be nice.

    6. Do these have the beams cross like the spyder auto projectors?

    7. If possible, is ther any pics of them test fitted on a Grand Prix?

    8. Do these have have any bouncing issues?
    answer those and i would look into buying a pair

    @ Dash Z Racing.

    Ive had 2 sets of 97-03 Pontiac Grand Prix Halo Projector Headlights - Black from you guys

    I just returned the last set last week

    The Problems i experienced
    1. Was Headlight Bouncing
    2. Brackets Broke on BOTH sets of Headlights
    3. The display (On the Road) was Bright with the 35W 6000K HID kit BUT it kinda seemed that it was being blocked by something thus didnt project as far as it should of.
    4. my HID 35W 6000K kit wasnt working right. only 1 side of it worked.

    I read in your eailer post that the ones i purchased was made in china?

    and that these NEW ones where made elsewhere? where would that be?

    and the Brackets aren't going to break on me?

    The factories are a three piece assembly for a reason. A two piece could work, but one piece is too few pieces unless the mounting points are re-enforced.

    Theres the headlight section, the turn light section and the mounting bracket.

    Possibly why the aftermarkets bounce is due to the fact they all seem to be missing those slide in pieces that the stockers have.

    not to rag on dashz here, but what ALL of these cheapo aftermarket lighting companies are missing, is being able to prove there product. They all have generic pictures of there product but if they've even done real world testing, wouldn't they have pics of them on a damn GP???!!! Thats what bothers me, none of them can produce any pictures of there product on the street yet they want us to blow that much money on something they can't prove is even worth the shipping....thats all i have to say about that. Atleast if you buy ebay you don't expect top quality

    Assuming the quality is there, those are some pretty good prices. $240 is not bad if it performs and is made better than the other projectors being sold.

    Here are some questions:

    1. Reading the site it says they utilize H1 bulbs in the projector part. is this true?

    Low Beam: H3

    2. What high beam bulb do these sets use?

    High Beam H1

    3. Do these use a similar bracket to the factory headlights? Looks like they don't from the rear photo provided. Spyder auto made a mistake in this department due to the fact that a replacement bracket can not be purchased.

    I will contact the manufacture for more info about this issue.

    4. Do these use all of the factory bulbs? 3357 and 194 for the signal bulbs.

    Yes, the signal bulbs will be the stock size

    5. What does the cut off look like on these projectors? Pics would be nice.

    Not available at the moment, if there's anyone from California would be interested to try them on, please PM me and we can set up appointment to make a installation write up for everyone and I will give extra discount on that set.

    6. Do these have the beams cross like the spyder auto projectors?

    No, they have a better cut off line, again, if I can have a volunteer to have them install and get all the pictures taken, it will be great. If not, I will need to wait for the R&D dept to get that done when there's a grand prix available.

    7. If possible, is ther any pics of them test fitted on a Grand Prix?

    not yet, waiting for the R&D Dept to get that done. but these headlights has been test fit before, just that they didn't take pictures or videos about the installation to show.

    8. Do these have have any bouncing issues?

    These projector headlights are manufacture after the spyder model (a different manufacture than spyder's), the manufacture has inform us that they have resolve that issue already.

    9. Just thought about this. How does the corner lock into place when mounted on the car? The factory bracket has a little ear tab that locks into place onto the car. From the pics itlooks like there is no tab.
    This issue I will also contact the manufacture for more info.


    Thank you very much for your concerns and it helps us a lot to explain about these headlights for everyone.
