I have depo headlights and taillights they have never failed and the quality is great
I’d stick to OEM or DEPO. OEM is best but also most expensive, DEPO is good for the money, they will last and fit well.
If you get lights, get depo lights.
Used depo aftermarket headlight since my OEM ones were melted on the inside from the Drls and super faded from the sun. Bulbs were D2S with lexus OE ballasts. Used a morimoto Motocontrol relay harness to eliminate flickering. Pretty fun diy mod and super happy with the results and the clean cut off line. I also disabled the DRL so this set won't melt.
I got a pair of DEPO OEM-style lights which look and fit the same and have the leveling motors. I notice that some light shines out the side of the assembly. I can see the HID capsule, located between a parabolic mirror and the projector lens, by looking through the side of the headlight at a specific angle. The light leakage through the same path illuminates a vertical strip of bushes and trees off each of the car. The beam pattern seems a bit different with these, more of a step-up versus what I thought was a straight horizontal cut-off previously. Otherwise the fit and finish seem fine on the DEPO lamps.
I have DEPO headlights. They look pretty much OE, but I won't necessarily recommend them. The fitting of the bulbs is cheap and not so reliable. Plus, if high beam goes out, you need to get the bumper out.
I just installed depo and had a similar issues. Ended up having to test each pin in the connector individually to match everything up properly. The diagrams online and even that came with the kit are all wrong for some reason.
I've had 2 sets of Depots. Both developed micro-cracks/crazing, in about a year.
I had a pair of depo headlights, maybe the same ones there. They started with good light output and relatively quickly degraded on the low beam with the projector. I got a chance to drive that car again and they are pretty terrible now, warning.
I had depo headlights on my last car. If you drive outside the city at night much then it's not much of an issue but the light output and pattern really leaves something to be desired, even with the xenon.
