to clear some "light", haha..

 

 

i used the CMD ones and the OEM Stanley ones before.. thanks to Gangster! sorry for what happen also..

 

ok, now.. lets start from the OEM SPEC 1 headlights..

the "throw" for the light is well dispersed but because of the frosted lens(translucent)

so no matter what type of bulb you used, there's not much used..

had tried HID and normal bulbs on my OEM Spec1 headlights.. HID is of cuz much brighter and can light up with a good throw..

 

Secondly is the "CMD" marked "SPEC3" headlight (so called "chiong" one)

light compared to Spec1 one was brighter, as it's clear lens.. (HID)

but the throw of the light is very dispersed, light was thrown everywhere..

causing glare to road users..

 

Thirdly is the OEM Spec3 headlights..

Still on HID, the lightings are till similar, using my eyes to judge..

but the difference was the throw of the lights, it's very much more concentrated..

because of the concentrated throw, HID effect was not glare that much..

 

Conclusions:

1. Price differences btw shops and whether it's inclusive of the installation..

i think i'm one of the first few to install the chiong one, paid abt $120 w/o installation..

OEM Stanley one should be abt $180 or so w/o installation.

 

2. Quality differences btw the two headlights.. the chiong one had a weaker and thinner bracket mount for the reflector..

i broke mine while fixing the headlights..

also chiong ones does not comes with wire stay for the mass load of wires you are supposed to keep nicely into the

headlight in order to clip and close headlight with the reflector..

 

try to get the two with normal bulbs or both HID to compare.. and open up to see the quality..

 

i hope i did clear the air here.. :cheers:

 

i think its the angle of the reflectors inside the headlight tat makes the difference in the light throwing...

 

thanks for clearing the "light"... :cheers:

s4vtec landing in progress... :lol:

 

:btw: biting_point, how much u pay to get ur HID Kit + install? :confused:

i used to use a spec3 headlight on my spec1 last time, it was fantastic, the lights were fantastic and all the way really fantastic until one day i slipped and fell and it cracked.

 

then i realised it wasn't that fantastic after all.

 

oh well.
