My depo headlights were solid as hell. I ran a bead of silicone around the edges and didn't have a single issue. Light output was increased from stock as well.
Pros: increased light output, solid

I bought a set of "smoked" DEPO's from an unnamed, supposedly reputable, used-parts seller on the vortex. Upon receiving the lights, discovered that two of the internal mounting tabs on the passenger headlights were broken.
Cons: mounting tabs broken
I have the DEPOT E-codes and In the mornings sometimes when I engage my left blinker it blows the fuse. other than that I LOVE the look of them...
Pros: LOVE the look
Cons: blows the fuse
I just installed the Depo models: Overall quality is ok for the price I paid. I had to do some troubleshooting because the blinkers would not come on: 1. The female spade connector from the wire harness had to be crimped tighter so it made good contact with the male connector on the sides of the socket housing 2. And I also pulled the center contact inside the socket housing so it made good contact with the bulb once inserted. I like the light output compared with the stock headlights...now I just need to aim them.
Pros: like the light output
Cons: troubleshooting required
Can someone who has these newer DEPO angel eye headlights tell me how to adjust or aim the headlights? Just finished doing a Getta conversion and a respray and want to get my darn headlights right! I see the big white knob on the top and the black knob on the bottom. But after turning the white knob on the top, I was only able to get a tiny bit of adjustment. I could not easily turn the bottom black knobs. I know headlight adjustment knobs move very slowly in the adjustments - so I'm asking after spending minutes turning the whiet knobs for little change. My driver's side beam is directly pointing at oncoming traffic but aiming low. Passnger side needs to be lowered and centered too. I'd love to have my headlights adjusted so I can see if these Osram Silverstars are really the shizel
Cons: difficult adjustment
DEPO is crap. REALLY cheap, Asian knockoff lousy lighting that your car does NOT deserve to suffer from.
Cons: cheap, lousy lighting

I purchased these lights 2 weeks ago. Received them in only three days. I'm extremely happy with the transaction and the item itself. Works great and a definite improvement over the stock lights.
Pros: works great, definite improvement

stey away from depo... All the beam pattern I had seen from them SUCKS!!
Cons: beam pattern sucks
Absolute garbage.. cheap, and you get what you pay for.
Cons: absolute garbage, cheap
Vehicle:

Beam Pattern Output is IDENTICAL for both Low beam operation and High Beam Operation. There is NO difference. Zip. Zero, between the two.
Pros: identical beam pattern
Cons: none
