I own these and they are great! I converted my Z to an aftermarket HID kit with these headlights and they are top notch. Bright clean light output, bright turn signal. Basically a clone of the newer 350Z housings but they do get a little humidity when I spray water on them from washing the car. That's the only downside in my opinion. A little light does leak through the gray area around the projector because I guess the paint is a little thin. You only notice this with the headlights on staring at them super up-close at night. No one is going to notice this.

DEPO is about the best you could get as far as aftermarket goes. everything else are about a few tiers off as light output concern. but then compare to OEM it's still not as good.
On my '04 WRX I used the Depo replacements after I tried the E-Bay Halo replacements for 1 day (worse headlight ever on the cheapy cool looking things). The Depo were OEM "look", probably insurance approved. I know they are not OEM, but I would say they are +95% of the OEM light pattern, which is still VERY good.
I've had my depo headlights for almost 2 years and never had any condensation.
I had the DEPO smileys on my last vert and the only annoyance is having to get them wired in correctly and the occasional condensation. Other than that, they're good for what you're paying.
I'm using the Depo HID Projector headlights paired with 4300k bulbs and it works perfectly fine.
The quality of Depo headlights is generally considered to be not bad (they are EU-certified), but not the best (like for instance Hella).
I have depo on my e36. They didn't fit too well to install, but they go in. Yhe harness is pretty easy installation. One positive and others to the lights
I used clear silicon around the whole housing and i still get some moisture problems...
Mine used to get moisture inside on the passenger side. Only when I decided to completely separate the lenses from the housing to fix the adjusters did they seal properly. Just used a clear silicone around it.
