expensive Hella lights dont break when you lamin-x them.....best investment for your lights besides relays....
It made a HUGE difference, and I think I'm no longer killing my headlight switch. My vintage SEV Marchal headlights with 80/100 Hella Yellow Stars now are very bright and focused.
Pretty much these depo heads are plug and play just make sure all the wires sit perfect on the heads and you are good to go.! I only needed to run a wire for the fog lights.

I too bought the DEPO headlights but had mine done by a company here in the bay area called Umitzna who replaced the halo rings to Orion Rings which are LED based hence why its so bright. But the lights along with a Euro Light switch and I had to have my car VagCom to shut off DRL! Now when i turn on parking lights both halo rings come on and when i turn the headlights, both rings plus my HID's run.
I bought a set for the B4 Passat I traded in earlier this year, and reviewed them in that thread starting on 22 April; they weren't bad -- far better than the stock NA headlights.
i miss hella lights smoked ecodes...fitment and quality was amazing...i would gladly pay the extra cash for headlights that dont fog up
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.
I replaced the stock headlamps with Depo black euro headlights and was fine for 6 months, then the bulb recently blew up again! Shards of glass ruined the almost new headlamp! The wiring must be iffy since there has been some meltage, my guess is too much current on the right side.
i installed my hella headlights about 4 months ago...now the headlights are cracking on the lens. it sort of looks like crows feet on a bad paint job. it looks really bad, and i never heard of anyone having this problem. geniune hella headlights from a gli.
