In my opinion Depo's are cheap. Go with Hella.

[RobPatt]

.... about $110 for the Depos vs. $500+ for the Hellas....

wonder if the Hellas are really five times better though.


but will the Depos fit? realized I should have checked realoem first and I could'a figured it out...

500 for hellas? No way man, you can find them 400ish.

[Sam-Son]

are the hellas that much better? I mean I found out the hard way that depos suck

How long have your factory Hellas lasted?

10X better. I've had problems with every Depo part I've ever bought and the had to turn around and buy the Hella part.

I recently had someone in a parking lot break one of my high beams, so I bought new Hella high beams. My ellipsoid lows were in good shape, but when I saw how the new highs looked I bought new Hella lows and new Hella fogs. They all look great on my car and the lighting is much brighter.

Don't forget to get the urethane protectors.
