Raxiom, Anzo or Spyder

I'm considering replacing my stock headlights with projector style lights. I have heard that Raxioms have a tendency to melt if too bright of bulb is used. Does anyone have experience with Anzo or Spyder headlights? Do they also have a melting issue with hotter bulbs?

This is an interesting option. Non-projectors with halo lights. They are available in black, chrome or smoked.

I have Spyder Projector Headlights. They were installed last Thursday. According to Spyder they operate at a lower heat ratio. Prior to these I had Spec-D Chrome Headlights.

I have spec-d (although, I think, we have different year models) and I don't have any issues with them. But I will say...they're not very user friendly for changing out the bulbs. I actually lost the clip that holds the high beam inside the housing, so I've only got one high beam the moment.

I bought some 35W HID's, but I haven't had time to install them. So I can't comment on whether or not they'll cause anything to melt yet.

Yeah the Spec-D are a pain for bulb change out but it is a lot easier with the Spyder light.
