Greetings:
My driver side headlight is broken (there is a piece broken which causes the beam pattern to be low and also the bulb vibrates a lot). I am trying to find out the pros/cons of buying just one OEM one (around $215) or to 'upgrade' to the E-code one. I found this one from Ecstuning but it is not available until December ($450 for a set):

Has anybody purchased these or other ones (E-code beam) and can share some experience and link(s) to buy them? They are supposed to be direct bolt in plug & play headlights, correct?
Thanks in advance.
