Default I need new headlights

For my 2000 Eclipse RS. Any suggestions? I am missing a gasket on one of them anyone know if you buy a set if they come with them? Also my lights completely suck, they dont help me much at night unless my brights are on.

I have heard about HID can anyone explain what that is to me? Is it just the bulbs?

Thanks.

Buy some DEPO projection lights call it a day... if you ave extra cash go for HID conversions. they are not headlights they are the ultra blue or white looking headlights

Since you say conversion Im guessing HID's are the bulbs? Do you have a link to the DEPO projection headlights? Also how much would it be for the HID and all that I need since i still need new lights as it is. Because the left one is all messed up.

is it all foggy? or just doesnt light up the right area, cause if thats the case, you could adjust them and make them 10x better

Well my right headlight is missing the rubber gasket so its not facing where it should. When the lights are on they only light up the ground like 10-15 feet ahead of me. The right headlight is like flaking off, not sure how to describe it.

So with all that I was just thinking about getting something like Halo Projectors or something. But I was thinking about the HID's because I like it when I see a car go by and their likes are really bright white.

Would it make any difference to get these headlights? I like the black housing better.

Alright, only problems I have heard about headlights from ebay are that they fog up and you can get rid of it but resealing the edges with silicone or something.
