Quality, good looking headlights that are cheaper than OEM
Based on the reviews and my experience buying aftermarket headlights for other cars I decided to wrap these with scotchguard and add an extra layer of silicone around the seal before installing and they have held up great after a year with no signs of wear. They came fully assembled and included the bulbs which I was not expecting so I replaced them with the LED bulbs I had purchased with them. Assembly was a huge pain but that is Subaru's fault and not specific to this headlight although I will say that these came horribly misaligned and that is not easy to adjust in this car after they have been installed. They look great without being over the top as they resemble the stock headlights on newer Subarus and make the car look more up to date. Highly recommend these but buy some replacement trim clips for your car because you might break them while removing the whole front bumper and grill.

Work great, Looks Great
After flipping a coin to decide weather or not to buy these because of the reviews i read about water getting in them and fogging up, i ended up purchasing them on Feb 17th . Im very glad i did ! I did take an extra percaution and added a little clear silicon on the cracks around the lens just to feel safer about the moisture getting in , although i did a bad job and didnt get all around the lens it has not developed any issues. Almost 3 months in and no complaints. Easy to install the bumper was not hard at all to remove and headlights came right off after a couple screws. Very satisfied.

So Far So Good
So far so good after 3 weeks. Fit like OEM in my STi. With these you lose your headlight leveling which is why they are only marketed for the WRX. Come with a single H7 bulb which functions both as low and high beam via a shutter. DRLs look great on cloudy days but don’t expect them to be as bright as an OEM DRL. Hard to notice them on on sunny days. I used LED bulbs in mine and had to modify the cover so that the harness from the LED driver could pass through to the bulb. This just involved drilling a hole for the harness and sealing back up with RTV to keep moisture out. No condensation as of yet but will update in the future if they fail.

Look awesome, but you HAVE to seal them with silicone
I put these headlights on my 2006 WRX wagon to replace OEM. They shipped super fast, and came ahead of schedule. These headlights are plug-and-play—super easy to install. The hardest part of the installation is removing the bumper carefully. Install time took about 45 mins and that was going slow and being extra careful. The downside of these lights is the poor sealing of the housing. I thought the reviews with notes of condensation leaking in were people who got a bad batch, but mine had the same problem. I took them back off, sealed the gaps with a generous amount of silicone, and they seem to be good now. I would happily pay an additional $50 for this set if they came sealed properly, as that was a big headache.

You get what you pay for, both in long-term quality and customer service.
I ordered these for my 06 WRX back in late October and installed them within a week or two of receiving. Installation is a bit tricky but that's more because of Subaru's headlamp design than this specific part. Fitment is similar to OEM, one side was a little bit tight against a mounting bolt but nothing severe. Looks great and gets lots of compliments. But the low price tag does come with some drawbacks.That was the first 6 months or so of ownership. Now, roughly 7 months and ~3500 miles later, in 40-75 degree F weather the passenger side headlamp is starting to melt from the inside out. See pictures attached to see the "bubbling" plastic. Outside is smooth, all damage seen is internal. I installed regular OEM-spec headlights in the car from the local Advance Auto.This is pretty clearly a defect in the product as I, the customer, can't do anything to that part of the headlamp nor can it be from damage going down the road. The plastic lens simply didn't hold up to the regular light bulb's heat, I guess? The driver's side is holding up fine so far with no indication of similar damage even starting to happen.I contacted the company who, after a day or two of "speaking to upper management," said there's nothing they can do for me because it's over 90 days old which is all they cover their products for, even in cases like this with pictures pretty clearly proving a defective product.A headlamp MELTING INTERNALLY after half a year and a few thousand miles is pretty unreasonable to me, even if it is one of the cheaper options out there, and my review would be 4 or 5 stars if they actually stood by their product beyond the BS 90 days for instances of defect.So be prepared if you buy these with the hopes they'll last a long time, they may not. And if they don't, expect to be left alone by the company and have to buy another pair or buy another set of headlamps somewhere else.

Fantastic facelift and good quality
The headlights feel very well made and solid. I didn’t see or feel anything that reminded me of cheap aftermarket. Install was straightforward with no issues. The projectors accepted my LED bulbs with no fitment issues. Simple one harness plug and play design. The headlights were even aimed pretty well out of the box. I will probably fine tune them when I have the chance. These headlights seriously transformed the look of the front of my WRX. I am honestly really happy with the product and don’t regret the purchase at all.

Well made product
This product was made well. My boyfriend got similar headlights for his Toyota but these headlights were better quality. They fit very well and make my 2007 Subaru Impreza 2.5i look new! They are hard to install only because Subaru made you have to take off the bumper. Once installed though, you won't regret it.

Weak customer service
Lights were wrong for my 07 STI , my fault. I requested a return label and the vender waited until the day before the deadline expired to send it. Not only that cost me 60.00$ to return. Buy your lights elsewhere is my recommendation.
