Default Which Brands are good?

I am looking to upgrade my road lighting. Add fogs and replace the main headlight units.

I know what I want but I ma not sure who i want them from?

I can go with no name stuff on ebay, or buy from websites that have name brands? Ebay will not always be cheaper due to rapetastic shipping charges to Canada.

Anyway as far as fogs go, I see a lot of no name stuff labeled JDM on Ebay, but I have also found some Depo and Esuse ones? Would those be better?

And same for headlights, I can get no name stuff off of Ebay or name brands off of websites like Spyder, Option racing and Anzo. Which am I better off getting?

i say get them from ebay and seal the lights up. it will be just as good as name brand. for fogs if you want pay extra for depo or raybrig those brands are oem spec lights. if you want to save money then you can go with those no name fog lights off ebay, although i'veheard of people heating up their wiring harness. no problem with mines so far, had them on for over a year

Alright, well ebay technically has all of them available. So if I can get a name brand for the same price I woudl be better off with those?

they all look the same...Just choose the seller with the best feedback. But if I had to make a choice it would be the second

With this stuff, if it's on another website and it's not OEM, it's going to be the same exact thing you will get if you buy on eBay. Especially the headlights... the eBay sellers sell a lot of Anzo and Spyder stuff. I paid $220 on my old Civic for Anzo headlights and they turned out to be the same quality **** (literally) that you get off eBay.

IMO, don't get projector headlights, stick with some reflector housing aftermarket ones. I prefer the black housings.
