any thoughts on these?

dont buy anything thats come with CCFL halo rings, i got ones and i regret.

if you want bright angel eyes, find headlights with LED rings

Get the Depo P90 V2 (the ones with 60leds in each ring). If not that, then get LCI Halogens... they are 100% plug and play, OEM, and they're very stylish. Maybe look for a set in the classifieds...

If you get DEPO'S you will be sorry. The LCI HALOGENS from ECS are $750

[vanondemand]

Ps my car is 2006 pre-lci

[sandman0615]

[sandman0615]

ebays quality - 1/10
depos - 8/10
oem - 10/10

[vanondemand]

excellent thanks!!!

Are the LCI Halogen plug n play on a Pre-LCI 2007?
Or how can you upgrade to xenons?

[N0OS3]

LCI halogen are 100% plug-n-play for your car. (i have LCI Halogens on my 2006)

Xenons require the ballast and coding to get them running properly.

[Brennan]

whats wrong with them ebay ones? they look very impressive, very OEM, even more OEM than depos

Xenons dont require coding, all they need is warning canceller boxes on the HID kit, i have this setup on my car and it works perfectly fine

DO NOT get the first ones. I got the same pair about 2 weeks ago. The projector comes out so far it acts like a magnifying glass and melts the unit on the inside! The seller was good though and gave me a full refund and told me not to worry about sending them back. I think it's a common problem with his.

Check out seller "fishcake321". He's selling DEPOS with xenon, comes with ballast and error cancelers. I've ordered a pair their about $500. I should be receiving them Tuesday. Send me a pm and I'll let you know if they seem like their good quality

Ive had the headlights in your first link installed since February.

My review for you.
Price $189
Light output - Decent
Projector pattern - Decent
Looks - Excellent

There are two issues with these. First, the headlights bounce on rough roads. I'm working on getting them tightened down to stop this. Second, they are designed unsealed so they do fog on occasion. I took some silicone and sealed them up about a month ago. Have not fogged up since.

For $189 these are worth the price for visual looks. Some people have had issues with quality, but I havent had issues with broken or burned up lights. They all work just fine.


If you cant afford $500 depos or $1000 OEM these are a good way to go. Ill be installing HID bulbs next and getting the car coded and still come out hundreds less than even the depo lights.

I wouldn't trust them anymore. I can show pictures of what has happened to mine. If you want Some pics send me a pm and I'll email them to you. I can't upload them now as I'm on my phone

Sooo...If I get the OEM Xenon headlights, I just have to get the error canceler for it to convert from Halogen to Xenon?

[vanondemand]

Yup... I have halogen housing and bought an hid kit with error cancelor and it works perfectley. Make sure you aim the properly and they are a huge improvement from halogen lights
