    Default While I'm at it ...

    Got my new Depo Euro-style lights today, just like these. IE, same vendor, different auction. I'm going to install them this weekend, weather permitting. Any gotchas / advice?

    I'll let y'all know how it goes.

    yeah i have advice for you. buy a set of hella lenses, and replace the depos ones before you install them.
    The depo lenses are not stress relieved, and the first time they really heat up THEY WILL CRACK!

    Might explain why they're so cheap.

    Anything's better than nothing, though, so I'm going to give these a shot.

    True. Depo onces look nice but do crack over time. If you can get a used set of Hellas, those are worth getting.
