Keep us posted on the quality and ease of installation. I know there are good ones on eBay, and then there are cheap knock offs. Are you going to align them yourself or just swap out the adjuster screws of you old ones?

My turn signal bulb hole wasn't the same as stock. Light fits but has some slop to it.
