Are the replacements still glass? Upon purchase I had to pop the p side lens off to resituate the reflector. My lights aren’t 2020 lasers but light up the road well, I really wish American car manufactures wouldn’t have left the Separate beam set up. The Lows turning off with the brights turned on is Sub optimal.
