Headlights Depo or HELIX
Get something OEM-equivalent, DEPO black housing headlights are a popular option. Most brands should be similar enough if you stick to OEM-style, but DEPO is the only brand I personally have experience with.
Oem is the best option, you can find deals on eBay or online sometimes, second best is depo aftermarket brand replacement headlights, not as good quality but the price is right.
The Depos came with H4/H1 and I upgraded to LED. The new reflector design is much better than factory and give it a fresh look. They would be "ok" with H bulbs but the LEDs def throw better light.
DEPO is pretty much the most popular aftermarket brands. Kinda pricey, but I’ve had mine on my car for 2 years, and I have no idea how long they had been on before then. I cracked one of the covers and was able to order a replacement for less than $50.
Finally got my hands on some Helix headlights after months of waiting. I couldn't be happier with the results!
I have depo on my e36. They didn't fit too well to install, but they go in. Yhe harness is pretty easy installation. One positive and others to the lights
I currently have on my car a set of depo/helix smoked angel eye headlights. One of the adjusters on the passenger side light has broke. The headlights themselves are in good shape, i would rate them about 7 out of ten. there are some nics in them from the previous owner being a daily driver, that seems to be the only problem minus the broken adjuster mechanism.
Main problem with depos, is they aren’t always sealed properly, so the headlights will have moister inside.
fitment is shit just stay stock.
I just got burned on the terrible quality of Helix halogen projector headlights, and put the stock reflector headlights back on. Yes, the Helix projector lights were that bad.
