There's nothing wrong with the Depo smoked Vento e-codes. You just have to put a bead of black silicone around the edges where the glass meets the plastic housing for preventative watertight measures and they're fine.
Pros: decent quality
Cons: needs watertight measures
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Vento
For the exterior my money goes to headlights with accent lights started by BMW and Audi and then copied by every manufacturer out there.
Pros: headlights with accent lights
oem Hella is really the only way to go for quality. if you plan to order them, do it asap. They take quite a while to arrive and may have several delays, but the quality is worth the wait. When I ordered my Hellas I think I waited about 5-6 months. My depo brand ecodes went right on my garage shelf and have stayed there since.
Pros: quality is worth the wait
Cons: may have several delays
DEPO are absolutely fine; they're not an OEM manufacturer for BMW, but they are for plenty of other brands so you shouldn't have the same concerns as you would with aftermarket rubbish. I've pulled them off scrapyard E30s before and they've been in better condition than the original stuff.
Pros: absolutely fine, good condition
Vehicle:
BMW
I'm happy with the quality, was a lot less than Hellas, been using them for 4 years with no issue, protected the lenses with film as they are glass, also fitted with HIDs
Pros: good quality, no issues, less expensive
Vehicle:
BMW
3 years with DEPO smileys. Euro spec H1. no fogging/condensation. The wiring at the back of the cap started to come undone but I hit it with a blob of hot glue and it was fine. Switched from H1 to LED bulbs, works great.
Pros: no fogging, no condensation, works great
Cons: wiring came undone

I have Euro Golf R headlights on my Canadian GTI with xenon lights. The headlights were almost plug and play except for some coding for the LED turn signal. But, the highbeams don't work.
Pros: almost plug and play
Cons: highbeams don't work
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
There should be a lower category specifically for the Passat. worst. headlights. ever. The shame is that a big part of the problem is that they are simply aimed at the ground about 100' in front of the car.
Cons: worst headlights ever
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
I purchased theses lights... between damaged in shipping and dry-rot the plastic mounting brackets shattered. seller refunded my money and life goes on.
Cons: damaged in shipping, dry-rot
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
