the light coming out is up to the bulb. Odds are they are exact replicas of the oem headlight. Weather or not they are good quality is another story

I heard some people bought the cleared black headlight housing from ebay, and the light is aimed too low and doesn't fit properly with the car.

Havent heard that here. Also if the light were aimed to low it would need to be adjusted. Headlights arent simple bolt them in and thats it. They need to be adjusted to the right level.
