TYC headlights are reasonably priced, but it doesn't mean that they are cheap universal-fit parts that will require extensive modifications for fitment. There are no differences between your original lights and the TYC product: same quality, same design and same installation. Each lamp is designed to meet DOT/SAE standards and the US Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard. The result? You get OE-like mounting provisions, adjusters, and sockets accompanied by the perfect fit to the body lines of your vehicle. Another benefit you get is the everlasting TYC durability. And because quality and durability are the hallmark of the TYC products, the company is so confident in its headlights that they're backed by a limited lifetime warranty against any and all defects in materials and workmanship for as long as the original purchaser owns the vehicle on which the part is installed.

TYC does everything possible to ensure its products meet the highest standards set in the industry, and TYC lamps are no exception. After a series of rigorous tests, these lights have been certified to CAPA standards. Certified Automotive Parts Association (aka CAPA) is a non-profit organization that developed a test program guaranteeing quality of automotive parts. CAPA-certification for lighting products includes four procedures: vehicle dimensional inspections, testing to the FMVSS-108 standards, vehicle test fit, and final approval.

To create accurate lighting fixtures and ensure precise in-vehicle positioning, the company's engineers gather all the vehicle dimensions. After a light is created, the time comes to make sure it meets the FMVSS-108 standards: in addition to comprehensive photometry testing, metallurgical and material compositions are analyzed and validated via infrared spectroscopy. Then comes durability testing that includes impact tests, abrasion, humidity, rain, salt spray, and vibration tests, as well as measurement of thickness of housing chroming. To ensure precise fitment, light assemblies are test-fitted to the vehicle. The final step is random selection of production batches for photometry testing. Only then can a light get CAPA approval. And this product did get it.
