is anyone using the aftermarket 02-03 headlights? like i guess the "depo" ones... and any problems w/ them? can u even tell the dif between depo and oem? thx cuz i need headlights and oem are expensiveeee

 

yeah got the depos seems like a decent light pattern, no stray light beams or anything (never had the stock ones to compare to though)

 

Oh ok thanks I may be getting a set soon then I'll take ur word for it

 

Depo are good headlights. if you have problem with condensation, make sure to check the seal between the ballast and the headlight; otherwise you might get condensation again with the new headlights.

who captures jjashaa?

 

^^ ok thanks, gosh condensation is so annoying i swear everytime i fix 1 thing on my car, another thing messes up, like now my passenger light has condensation when for like a whole 6 months it didnt, and b4 that light had condensation one of my fog lights were out... gossshhh but yeah enuf of my crying thx for the info

ooh and about jjashaa, unfortunately he got banned... for defending asians

 

i haver only had my car for 2 weeks now but you got me looking at the light pattern and there is a little bit of a hotspot(brighter) in the passenger side headlight but only really noticable when it is darker out, aka back roads with no street lights with no other cars really, in town not really noticable at all

 

that guy above is spamming this site. fyi mods

 

I agree saw the same message on 8 threads...

 

Most of the time the condensation comes from the bottom of the light.

Depo lights are the way to go if you want to replace your headlights. Some people are anal about things like that so they have to have OEM; others get the depo. The only difference is the light pattern. Besides that they are pretty much the same.

 

^^ is it just like splattered light everywhere? or is there sumwat of a cut off atleast?

 

I don't think that there is a cutoff with the Depos but I could be wrong.

 

Hey OP - Sell me your OEM headlights at a reasonable price since they're not sealed right. I'm gettin some parts together for a retro..but I'm taking my time. No rush for me so I'm huntin for deals. Thanks lemme know! I might even trade you my OEMs if I can get it done.
