Deceptive Product Listings & Misleading Recommendations
I purchased the H7 LED Headlight Conversion Kit from Headlight Experts for my 2005 Mercedes-Benz E500, based on their website’s recommendation for daytime running lights. The product arrived quickly, but when my mechanic installed it, it did not work as advertised. The low beam it replaced was not a proper fit for the daytime running lights I was upgrading.
When I reached out for an RMA (Return Merchandise Authorization) to return the product, I was met with a level of rudeness and unprofessionalism that is simply unacceptable in any legitimate business.
Unbelievably Hostile Customer Service – Unprofessional & Abusive Behavior
After sending an email politely requesting an RMA, I received a dismissive response from someone named Robert, who provided no resolution or assistance. I then called their customer service line, and what followed was nothing short of shocking:
The representative refused to give his name, stating, “Are you stupid? I’m not going to tell you my name.”
He was condescending and rude, offering zero customer support and refusing to assist with a simple return request.
When I explained my frustration and stated that I had never had such a terrible customer service experience, he responded “I could care less.”
I requested his name multiple times, but he flat-out refused, making it clear that Headlight Experts does not care about accountability or professionalism.
To add insult to injury, when I later received a callback from my original email inquiry, it was the same person – Robert – the same rude representative who had insulted me earlier.
Scam-Level Restocking Fees & Unethical Return Policy
Even after enduring this horrendous customer experience, I was informed that they would keep 20% of my payment as a “restocking fee”—a blatant rip-off for a product that was incorrectly recommended by their own website.
Final Verdict – Stay Away from Headlight Experts!
This company is an absolute scam when it comes to customer service, and their misleading product listings, refusal to stand behind their recommendations, and outright abusive behavior toward customers make it clear that they should not be in business.
🚨 Avoid Headlight Experts at ALL COSTS. 🚨
✔️ Misleading product recommendations
✔️ Horrendous, hostile customer service
✔️ Unethical return policies & hidden restocking fees
DO NOT waste your time or money here. There are plenty of reputable companies that actually respect their customers and stand behind their products. This company is not one of them.
Upon testing the installed lamps I was surprised to find the high/low beam polarity mis-wired! I contacted customer service and was informed that I would be responsible for, return, shipping to process the replacement. Therefore I decided to rewire the lamps myself.
Pre-installation I investigated the Headlight Experts installation videos, and reviewed the factory shop manual, applicable to my vehicle, for proper fitting. Following the installation, into factory new lamp housings, and subsequent testing I found that the lights produced irregular beam patterns. I re-clocked the orientation of the lamps to no avail. I enlisted the service of ASE technicians to evaluate the dilemma, to no avail.
I then reached out to Headlight Experts customer service and was advised that I would not receive a refund outside the thirty day mark. My only option was to experiment with an alternate model conversion kit. Mind you, shipping fees were my responsibility.
Hoping to convince Headlight Experts to accommodate a refund through a return of product, a reasonable request, I contacted the bank I made the purchase through and filed a claim! Ultimately, the bank agreed with my persuit and refunded my money.
The staff at Headlight Experts are, unquestionably, an unethical, unprofessional, and oblivious, sort.
There are to many options, on the market, concerning automotive Headlight Conversion kits to waste energy with a company that promotes what they are not.
DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY!
At no point did I get an apology for their website giving me miss information or nor did they try to make up for making the mistake in any way shape or form! Do your research on this company and you will find there are a tremendous amount of negative reviews. There are no places on their website or on their sites on social media to add a review, but this is for a reason they don't want anybody to read their negative reviews.!
Why did you give them five stars, then? I'm pretty sure it's a mistake. :)
Do Not, I say Do Not spend your hard earned money on any products from this so called headlight experts. I would leave a -10 if I could. The only thing they are experts at is stealing your money. They are Rude, Crude and will lie to you, hang up on you. They say Lifetime warranty...Not True at all. They will tell you all kinds of lies. Oh those are on back order. Oh those are out of stock. It's all lies.
They will send you the wrong parts then say they are the right ones. By the time your done playing with these liars the time is up or you have spent big money returning for no reason as they don't answer your emails or contact you.
Read all of these Poor Reviews as they are all trying to save you some money and a big headache. Stay Away.
There are No Refunds so be prepared.
EVERYTHING IS ON BACK ORDER...EVERYTHING. 6 MONTHS OF EVERYTHING IS ON BACKORDER WHEN YOU WANT REPLACEMENT.
STAY AWAY, READ ALL OF THE REVIEWS FROM EVERY SITE. BUY SOMEWHERE ELSE. THEY ARE CHEAP PARTS AND DO NOT HOLD UP.
THEY ARE NOT EXPERTS
I spent $300 on what was supposed to be HID for my 2015 Silverado HD low beam, high beam and fog lights. ITS BEEN 2 1/2 YEARS OF TOTAL NIGHTMARE. THE PRODUCTS ARE CHEAP, THEY WANT YOU TO REWIRE THE HARNESS THAT COMES WITH IT.
FREE REPLACEMENT OR WARRANTY DOESN'T MEAN ANYTHING WHEN THEY SAY FOR 6 MONTHS THAT IT'S ON BACKORDER MAYBE NEXT WEEK. I HAVE OVER 200 EMAILS TRYING TO GET MY LIGHTS WORKING. STAY AWAY AND READ OTHER SITES WITH REVIEWS AS THERE ARE PLENTY OF REASONS TO STAY AWAY FROM THE non headlight experts.
Of course they retaliated against me writing a bad review like they have done to others on this site.
I wait 3 business days, email again, and now they tell me it won’t be out for another 3 business days at the earliest…
I have wasted enough time with them with 2 false promises, won’t be giving them a 3rd chance. Looks like everybody else has experience similar.
OK Ronald McDonald, lol.
1. Low quality China crap
2. No ability to return product for a refund if its been installed. Ridiculous restock fees otherwise.
3. They lie about 2 day shipping, they create a shipment through USPS so it appears that it ships, but you will not receive the product for over a month.
4. Horrible and Rude customer service.
5. You will be out your money because their products are despicably bad and fail within a few days.
