Headlights Depo or Bosch
I have a set of projector depo lights from uniquestyleracing. They have been fine for me. I recently swapped my halogen H1 bulbs for an LED bulb and it\u2019s plenty bright at night.
Unless you are in love with those headlights, I'd go with some smileys, I installed the Depo reps.
Best option would be to get some capa certified headlights from depo on rockauto
Either Depo or TYC from rock auto will give you OEM look and performance without the OEM price. I replaced my headlights and corner lights with these 2 brands over a year and a half ago with no moisture or fitment issues.
Depo lights from rockauto. Good quality and look like oe
I ran Depos on a 97 M3 for a while, much better than the condition of the headlights when I bought the car, middle of the road for me and I have horrible night vision.
I\u2019ve had Depo for 4 years now, on a car kept outside. Mine have not leaked at all, but the lenses have started to fade. I\u2019m about to restore them soon.
I think they're shit. The tabs started snapping off a light as it was sitting on my kitchen table.
Depos are junk, they yellow and get water inside them anytime you wash your car.
DEPOs are absolute trash. I've had them literally crumble while sitting on my kitchen table... Like tabs started flying around...
