...i'm still waiting on the pics. I've always thought they were all the same... but i'm not one to say that I've never been wrong either.

either way, get them off ebay or a site sponser they are cheaper anyways. unless you are going with the black beuties... as I don't think they are sold in as many places.

and who knows... maybe none of them are exactly the same even if you were to buy two sets from BOI.... keeping in mind most of this stuff is made in other countries where quality control isn't always the most important.

I would still argue that every company is getting these headlights from the same place.

I can tell you the ones from ART and the BLue oval ones are made by the same manufacturer. How do I know this? I know the owner of BOI and I asked him.

I am too.
Its this

vs. this

well, I can take pictures of my headlights that would make them look really dark in one photo and really light in another photo... that's why you can't go by pics like that.

i'm sticking to my previous statements that they are all the exact same.

exactly what I've always said... but I phrased it as a little kid in a third world country... but anyways, I'm glad I'm not the only one making this argument.

This is apparently the best picture she could get. Not the best illustration of my point, but believe me when I say I wouldn't be arguing this if I knew I was wrong. The reason all the smoked lights you see are the same is because no one buys them from UPR. Simple as that.

that picture doesn't do squat for me... and to be honest I doubt any picture really could. They very quite a bit depending on the lighting, angle of the headlight, etc.

does it really matter anyways? didn't you say that upr quit selling smoked headlights?

The amount/angle of lighting can't get much more similar than that. The only reason it matters to me is that y'all refuse to believe what I happen to know is true. We can drop this anytime... it's a dumb argument. Just know that UPR lights are different than others.
When did I say they quit making them?

its a yellow pic, how could we tell? But if you believe it, why do you need the approval of us?
