As far as headlights go? You really can't beat PDI headlights. They easily match or surpass OEM quality. They're only available for 87-04 currently, but they're getting into s197s.

We sell them on our website, as well as installation kits for 87-93.

How long do they last before they fade or peel without waxing?

To be honest? I've sold hundreds of sets with not a single individual complaining about the quality of these headlights. I believe the only "return/exchange" I've had was because of a part number mix up when the customer ordered tinted headlights, and he received stock headlights. Other than that, no complaints!

when a company doesn't even care to get there crap back, and well just send you a new one, that would show a reg problem. And I have had the same person tell me the same line, oh we've never had a problem with those parts before lol,the same line on the same part, three different times. there company is a joke, i've literally got one of there sales reps to come clean and tell me its in there policy to say, we have never had that problem before, or not many of those go bad, Im pretty sure we all know how good there cheap door handles are correct? I literally spent a thousand bucks to help restore my kids moms car, after spending an hour with teh manager on why i havent dealt with them in years so i could feel better about spending my money again with them, some of these parts are hard to find. the car i have been building, hasn't even left my shop or ever left out side in the sun, and with a year of time all the parts are either cracked, do not line up were dry cracking. i've had to deal with their manager, and he will treat you like a retard till you stand your ground and can prove you have some weight with your business, then all the sudden hes your buddy.dont know who else to go threw, but until they can get better quality control i def pay more to get something at least decent of way better quality.

only part I've really had an issue with from them was the pedal pads they sell. I bought a set of stock replacement clutch/brake pedal pads for my notchback and within a year I wore through the rubber totally down to the metal of the pedals.

They sent me a new set for free no questions asked...I have no idea if they are better quality or not since I basically haven't driven that car since then.

There is nothing wrong with Late Model, their website is great and quality has been fine with products I've received. I've spent lots of money with them, no need to not shop with them.

I deal iN a lot of cars, so its not just one time use of there store that only a couple problems occurred. try anybody else. i'm a shop and have been in this place for 12 years now. I have about 3 pages of different complaints with there home based made products, and them even selling others good products, take you chances.
