Window Visor question!! Ebay vs. OEM

Hi, I'm Mike, I just got my black 04 TL (Navi, 95k, for $9600) and I'm looking to do some easy mods before the winter time. I saw some dude's picture on here with window visors and it looked sick!! I found two places that sell them, they are as follows..

EBAY: $54.95

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...K%3AMEWAX%3AIT

&

hondauraworld: $159.99

http://www.hondacuraworld.com/Mercha...=08R04-SEP-201

Which one should I get? I'm all for saving $100 dollars, but, I would rather pay that if it meant better quality.. Need help!!

P.S. I'm from metro-Detroit and looking for someone around here to help me with the Fog Light mod. Will pay someone to install them, let me know..

Get the OEM ones...it looks $100 better than the weathertec ones and i've never seen these ebay ones but they don't even have a picture of it on the car. The OEM ones are the best looking and thats probably what you are getting them for.

I know right? I had 11.5k to spend on a car and HAD to get a TL. I work for the airline so I was looking cross-country for it and finally found one in Chicago. I don't know what the guy was smoking, but it had to have been some GREAT stuff. I flew down their the same day and picked it up.

I think I'm going to take your advice atlM5. After looking real hard at the pictures on Ebay, I think the back two visors look a little different then the OEM version.

Get the OEM ones. They look much much better than the AVS styled one. The OEM ones flow with the lines of the car and don't flare out too much while still being very functional. They also use brackets and tape for a very secure and clean install. I just purchased mine from Open Road Acura of Wayne on ebay using bing's cashback. Came to $143 shipped including the cashback (comes 30 days or so later in my paypal account). Shipped today too!

Oh and.. KILLER DEAL!

Oem makes makes the car look sleaker and "connects the doors" aka looks flush. Weather tech looks like something slapped on the car. Weather tech is stick on while OEM is a little more harder to install but it has clips to ensure it never falling off. Plus if you ever sell your car resale value is there on OEM.

Go to bing.com (microsoft search engine) and click on shopping then search for something like "used acura tl" or anything that will pop on ebay. Then on the right you will see a link for ebay and it will show the amount of cashback you can get (8% at the moment). The link takes you to ebay and as long as you use buy it now and pay with paypal you will get that much off. Hopefully that makes sense!

What are ebay bucks? I need all the free money I can get!

The OEM ones are really the best ones. They fit an look a cut above the aftermarket ones.

I searched bing.com for 5 hours (10min) trying to get it to link me to the ebay visors with no luck. If someone knows how to get it up please run it and post the link from bing.com so I can get it.

Ebay bucks is a promotion that's going on this month for buyers and sellers. Whatever you buy/sell you get a percentage of it. For example, if I buy these visors for 145.00, I get 3 dollars..
