Question depo headlight longevity and durability

I just purchased a pair of Depo headlights (with clear corners) for my 2006 TSX. I was hoping I could get some feedback from members here who have had their Depo headlights awhile to see how they are holding up. My OEM headlights are 9 years old and are badly oxidized (I guess that what it is). I am hoping the Depo ones don't look like that after just a few years. Maybe if the Depos aren't holding up well I should buy some Xpel or Lamin-X (clear) film and just cover them right away.

I did 3M clear bra with UV block on my 06 headlight/fogs when I first purchased new and the lens is still clear after +9 yrs in the southwest sun (same for my RDX and MDX). Make sure it has UV protection with Xpel or Lamin-X products. I had to replace the film on my fogs only because road rash made the lens look cloudy; but, the lens was well protected and clear again with new film.

A cheaper solution might be doing the lens restore polish and then putting the clear bra material afterwards.
