I believe I have these on my S70 and they've lasted several years now with no visible clouding or any issues whatsoever. Good buy imo.

Pros: lasted several years, no clouding, no issues
Vehicle: Volvo S70

I think I got TYC housings from rock auto for about $300. No issues with aiming them and the cut off was much more clear than my faded oem lights. They came with bulbs but the headlights were really dim so I replaced them. At first had some moisture problems but that went away. Think they have capa certification also.

Pros: easy to aim, clear light cutoff
Cons: dim original bulbs, initial moisture
Vehicle: Honda Fit

I just replaced mine with the TYC ones from rockauto.

The quality of the injection molding on the backs is obviously a little different from the originals, but the optics are at least good. Overall I'm pretty happy with them

Pros: good optics, happy overall
Cons: different injection molding
Vehicle: Volvo XC70

I’ve got TYC headlights on my V50. It all works and fits but the quality is definitely lower than oem, but it works and its a lot cheaper so its worth it if you are on a budget. Would go oem next time though

Pros: works, fits, cheaper
Cons: lower quality than OEM
Vehicle: Volvo V50

it's been driving me nuts that I've been getting condensation only in my passenger side headlight. They're brand new TYC aftermarket headlights and I have another friend with the same exact issue. Same brand, same side.

It's not leaking or anything. Just your typical condensation that doesn't go away lol. I've checked the breather valve (valve for venting the heat) and while it looks identical to the driver side, the holes are pretty small. I'm guessing it's not enough for the hot air to vent out, hence the condensation.

Cons: condensation, small breather holes

First picture is low beams Second high and low Third against a wall about 10 feet away ( couldnt find a dark enough place with enough space to do the 25ft) My main complaint is the dark and hot spots. There is no blend with the beams. You can clearly see the reflectors mirrored onto the street. (Worse in real life) Also there is no light thrown to the sides of the vehicle. Almost looks like a spot light They might not be adjusted perfectly but that is also due to the lack of quality. While adjusting the headlights one of 6mm hex screws came out. Another one appeared to not to be doing anything and then jumped a large amount and stopped adjusting. Im assuming they skipped a tooth or the internal adjusting screw came out of the reflector housing.

Cons: dark and hot spots

Either way these no name aftermarkets have to go lol. Someone on here can have them for free once i get these Hellas put in. Kind of shocked at how terrible they are. The company that sells them is PERDE, but if you look closely at the housing they are really TYC's. As a mechanic, I used TYC for simple stuff before like a radiator or maybe a blower fan etc. This is my first time using one of their headlights. Certain things just arent good aftermarket, headlights being one of them apparently lol.

Cons: terrible quality
