Finally got my hands on some Helix headlights after months of waiting. I couldn't be happier with the results!
Pros: happy with results
I had a set of the blacked out ones on my bugeye for over a year. no issues.
Pros: no issues
Vehicle:
Subaru
I bought [these headlights](https://www.ecstuning.com/b-helix-parts/mk75-style-headlight-set-black-trim/hvwg7hl-75b2~hlx/) with [this LED kit](https://www.ecstuning.com/b-morimoto-parts/d2h-d2s-2-stroke-led-bulb-kit/led1509kt/). So far so great. They look amazing, the LED upgrade is literally night and day. Fitment is good, no issues, and they shipped pretty fast.
Pros: look amazing, good fitment

Just wanted to follow up for anyone else thinking about running the same headlights that I found a working solution. To reiterate what MarcoCap24 stated, the Helix LED R Style for the Mk6 Jetta ( https://www.urotuning.com/Helix-Projector-Headlights-LED-R-Style-Mk6-Jetta-p/hvwj6hl-l7.htm ) LED UU's will light up as intended with a euroswitch.
Pros: lights up as intended
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
I bought and installed them many years ago while I was living in Germany. The lights are in excellent condition with no damage, but the lenses are cloudy from years of use. They have never been sanded, so a 3M kit could be used to clean them up. The auto leveling functioned properly.
Pros: excellent condition, auto leveling works
Cons: lenses are cloudy
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
I just installed the Helix Replicas in my GTI s with the HID kit. They look great and big upgrade compared to the halogens. Only draw back is the high beams are useless as they are halogen and they get washed out with the HID.
Pros: look great, big upgrade
Cons: high beams are useless
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
The Helix/Depo Headlights from urotuning.com were very ascetically pleasing; identical to OEM R32 headlights from afar. The HID kit went in perfectly and were completely installed from start to finish in under an hour. Unfortunately, there was good and bad to the headlights themselves. On both headlights, the cutoff is great, the highbeams are great and they look beautiful installed. The passenger side needed very little adjustment. The driver side needed some slight adjustment to level out; however, a hotspot was extremely present and unadjustable. The hotspot currently points into the opposing lane causing my visibility to be diminished.
Pros: ascetically pleasing, great cutoff
Cons: hotspot unadjustable
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
I have a 2024 Outback Onyx. The headlights are super bright and I'm always getting flashed as though I have my high beams on when I don't.
Pros: super bright
Cons: getting flashed
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
I have an 09 Forrester and its nearly impossible to drive at night due to the headlights. Foggy, not bright and direction is off.
Cons: foggy, not bright, direction off
Vehicle:
Subaru Forester
One of the worst modern offenders in the current Outback. I have no idea how these are legal. They are aimed incredibly high and are bright enough to be high beams.
Pros: bright enough
Cons: aimed incredibly high
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
