I'm apprehensive to use ebay headlight assemblies.

Engine/mechanical parts sounds like a deathwish to me. But hey, I could be wrong.

Somethings that look good. They have almost 99% positive feedback on over 25,000 transactions. Additionally they are from Germany. Those both bode well for you. I ask if they have any feedback from the six people that have purchased these headers. I’m with the last poster when you get into mechanical stuff it’s kind of a scary proposition. I would go for it if you have someone on your and you can really manipulate shaping And fitment

It's just exhaust, not really a mechanical part like cams or something that really depends on the engine's life.

Cheap headers are (most of the time) not worth it due to bad fitment, which is a monumental PIA

It’s a gamble and the odds are not in the buyer’s favor, but finding a good supplier would be nice.

Let us know hoe it goes!

Feedback for them is decent. Can always return if they don't fit worst case.
