Depo Headlights?
I saw these at the NY auto show. I tried doing a search for these depo headlights, but couldn't find anything.
I think these look amazing. Anyone know who makes them and where I can buy them? Sorry, low quality iPhone pics. http://i.imgur.com/Y5fgs2h.jpg http://i.imgur.com/M9sCM4D.jpg http://i.imgur.com/nl3qQsl.jpg |
DEPO makes them, and the few bits of info I'm finding all say "coming soon."
Who is DEPO, you ask? Not a clue. [ame=http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=bl_sr_automotive?ie=UTF8&field-brandtextbin=Depo&node=15684181]Here's[/ame] a link to their stuff on Amazon. I couldn't find a homepage, just a lot of forum references for people installing their lights on other cars. Edit: apparently they're a Taiwanese company that makes DOT-approved headlights, often mimicking JDM styles or converting to HID. |
The eyelid thing reminds me of of the BMW headlights

Looks to be similar/the same headlights that were supposedly by Valenti and were features on several of the vehicles at TAS this year - http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1501435
I've been waiting to hear more information on this style of headlight myself. |

DEPO is one of the major contract manufacturers for headlights, tail lights etc.
They make the TOMS tails, for instance. It's about time they came up with something.... |
Those look like the have LEDs inside

I ran DEPO headlights on my RSX and the durability was terrible. They fit nicely and looked great at first, but within less than a year the lenses were messed up. It looked almost as if there was a layer of tape on top that was partially peeling off. Slight issues with hazing too.
As stated above, DEPO makes the TOMS taillights that seem to be holding up well for most people. Of course taillights are subject to a lot less abuse than headlights, so that may be why. I'd never buy another DEPO headlight again after my first experience. |

No doubt they've had issues here and there. They all do at some point. (Not just DEPOT)
I've had several sets over the years with no issue. Sorry to see you had a bad experience. |
I'll second that. DEPO does not make great aftermarket headlights. I'm sure their OEM stuff is better quality, and it seems like my TOMS are holding up well.

My TOMs are holding up good, and my Depo headlights on my old e36 were of good quality as well.

I had depot headlights on my Integra GSR about 10 years ago when I wanted to go from the pre-98 style front end to 98+ front end. Fitment and everything was fine, no issues at all.

Same here... They were pretty popular in the honda scene way back in the day
