Gauging Interest: Depo Projector Headlights w/ Clears
UPDATE Live on our site! Check out GB section or our site for more information, or PM Hello all, Wanted to see what the interest was surrounding a full replacement projector headlight with clear side reflectors and xenon white angel eyes. They will use H7 Bulbs for High/Low Beams. These are brand new items and will not be available until next month or so. So unfortunately, we don't have any pictures of these installed on a car or lighted up as of yet. Sample units are arriving in a few weeks but we wanted to see how many people might be interested in these beforehand. Only picture we have at the moment is this... Any feedback is much appreciated. Thanks guys. Last edited by SV Concepts II; 04-16-2010 at 03:43 PM.. |

hehe, and I was shopping for a set of Depo headlights for my E36....funny that they came up with one for the 1ers...
You should have no problem selling these, for those of us who want the clear corners but don't want to spend $1500+ from Germany.

I guess some good questions to ask would be the following..
For us existing owners of US Spec Adaptive Lighting headlights, is it plug and play and offer similar functionality? How is the beam pattern? Will it produce any error message or lighting codes in the computer?

Just got a response from our supplier.
They are H7 and as such, will not be adaptive. That would make the cost of these ridiculously expensive unfortunately. |

Yeah the adaptive functionality is super expensive, it would not make it worth it. However, if you have halogens, these are an awesome alternative.

I would never give up my adaptive headlights for getting rid of the orange side marker. I would get these if I did not have the adaptive lights BUT, only after my warranty was up. I would also like to see if DEPO has gone to a better ballast supplier for the angel eyes.
Had DEPO's on my E36 M3 and I was very happy with them, other than the fact that I had to replace the ballast for the angel eyes several times due to them not working properly in low temperatures. Not fun!!!!

I think that limits these to 128i's who did not check off the Xenon option. I would doubt that any of us would trade Xenons for clear corners.

Would be very interested but don't want to give up HID headlights. If it were a DS2 bulb I would probably pull the trigger... I could care less if my headlight follows me through the turn, but I don't think I could give up my xenons... Although this is very tempting...

I would be very interested in these as I have a 128i with Halogens. This would solve my problem of wanting xenons and wanting to get rid of the orange side markers!

is it going to be plug and play for halogen headlight owners?
if HID is pre-installed, how long does it usually last? with HID, what's the rough cost? $3xx range? I want the angel eyes! |
