Pros: Cheap HID light, rock shield included, internal ballast
Cons: plastic housing

I bought 2 of these when they were on sale a few months ago. They put out a very good pattern, and bright white light. Overall, for the price they can't be beat for a HID light. The only thing that would make them better would be a metal housing.

Pros:
Cons:

Good reviews. A high-intensity discharge light is commonly known as HID light. They are well-known for offering a higher and better light intensity with lower power consumption, it's important for road safety. If a comparison is made with fluorescent and incandescent lights, these light generate a far superior amount of light per unit area of light package.

Pros: Bright, Easy Install
Cons: Plastic mounting bracket seems like it would strip after a while

Just installed these lights on my 03 sport xlt and I love them. They are very bright and install was pretty easy for me, and I am a novice at electronics. The housing and lense are really quality, the only problem I have is that the mounting bracket which doubles as the adjustment is plastic and seems like they will strip eventually, but hopefully not. I also didnt like the switch that they came with as it seemed kinda cheap, but that was easy changed for 5 bucks. Overall a really good effective light at a competitive price.
