all were purchased on eBay, quality was good to real good but not OEM quality, fittment was a little bit of a pain but overall I'm happy with the outcome. I'm not even sure what made me get them besides the yellowing plastic lenses that really bug me next to the crystal clear glass headlights, and the fact that I want my van to look a bit different than the thousands of other Astro's in my area. Just last week I counted 9 on my way home from work, all gen 2. Best part of the new headlights is that now I have a functioning turn signal light attached to the headlight, unlike the OEM version, I wired it in to the outer smaller bulbs wiring on the turn signal, works great and the blink alternates when the headlights are on. Also, my reverse lights are way brighter

i agree. They yellowing plastic next to the glass bugs me too. Why not just us the same material. At least on the front... Arrgh.

just a quick question. Did you remove the plastic rocker panels on your van or did it come that way??
