Are These Real Depo Lights?

Snyperx · 10-19-2011, 01:52 PM

Looking at getting the Depo lights for my halogen equipped 06 325i. Are these the real deal?

If so I might jump on these.

no... they look like oem actually

depos have 2 kinds for E90: Euro-style (white reflector), and the LCI-style (led turn signal, blacked-out turn signal)

Hmmm. Does Depo make an OEM style of the e90 lights??? The seller seems to have a stellar ratings.

Anyone with more than 50k ratings should have a stellar buyer rating! But that doesn't mean it's a good quality product. They're certainly not DEPOs, I can tell you that right now.

Well this sucks. Here are thought I found some Depo lights for a good price and it would seem that is not the case. No way I can spend over $300 for lights, budget won't allow.

Well then my best suggestion is set aside a bit every month for some legitimate DEPOs

lol my friend showed me this auction the other day.

In the description it says DEPO but the pictures are of OEM BMW housings. I wanted to contact them about it but I was too lazy.

It's a misleading picture and I think that might violate eBay selling terms.

I'm also 100% positive those are OEM housings. DEPO angel eyes DO NOT look like that. That is OEM BMW design (might be Hella's design to more accurate).

Also the description says halogen. Those are xenon housings......

Snyperx · 10-19-2011, 04:58 PM

Well that sucks. Guess I'll stick to my factory halogens.

With a budget of ~$500, you're likely going to be looking at a set of CCFL style angel eyes... the good quality lights (especially DEPO) usually start at $600+
