I would ask the seller what company makes them. Usually these tail lights are manufactured by DEPO. If they are, the quality is up to par with OEM.

^I agree with TypeSDragon. I'd rather spend 100$ less for the DEPO.

I have one depo and one OEM...the depo is a very little bit darker, but the fitment and quality is amazing, depo does a really good job with their lights!

Yeah, ask if they are depo. I have the depo and they are great, perfect fit and plug and play. Good Luck

If I was doing one tail-light I would match them with OEM because there are very very minute differences. If I was doing both I wouldn't mind DEPO. Their stuff is good quality and worth the price difference.

I didnt like the fitment with my depos, maybe I just got a bad one. I dont know if OEM fitment would be any better though. But imo, definitely stay away from the side markers.
