Default Ok, can someone explain this one???

Our car's have been out a bit longer, we have quite a bit Neon's and Neon SRT-4's on the road, yet the Chevy Cobalt already has aftermarket headlights out for their car Not too long ago when I used to deal with 4headlights.com and we used to fight with companies to producing different style headlights we constantly told the market just wasn't big enough. Are there really that many other cobalts out there?

Granted Morette tried a set and failed due to their design & agriculture lighting and we have black housing headlights (not much effort there) but what about other options such as the never ending question... "Any projector headlights available?"

Sorry for the rant but I was pretty ticked off about that personally.

They might be working on it, they just came out with some just like that for 00-02 Neons, however if they make headlights like that for our cars, and I see them on someones car......I'm smashing them.

Those look like complete ass.

The problem with units like those is that alot of companies use bunk-quality cheap mass produced halogen projectors. Anyone remember Denji, TYC or APC projector lights if they had a Honda? Remember how poor the beam was LOL? Typically with units like those above, their priced cheap for a reason....

Not every manufacturer is going to use the same cheap quality projector but usually people that cram halo rings in headlights...eh...I doubt they care for top notch performance.

X 2 on those look like ass.

I'm just ranting that they (oversea's manufacturer's) are quick to make a up something for the cobalt's while we get the shaft. I agree retro's are MUCH better in quality though.

Like mentioned, typically with theses overseas, often Asian made stuff, you get mass produced poor quality projectors/equipment, Usually results in less than stock or desireable output.
