don't waste your money on depo, poor pattern and poor quality, I buy hella every time
Owner reviews for headlights
from my experience....DEPO is cheaper and much crappier than Hella (OEM). The beam pattern is horrendous compared to Hella
As I've installed them into my car, I'd say that they're great units. The fit and finish is excellent. Maybe not as high quality as the Hella units, but not as cheap as other products. After a Month, they're fine, even being high pressure washed and doused in PNW rain, they're doing fine.
Stock head lamp with Sylvania silver star Hella e-codes + Vision plus bulbs. You should see a lot better with the e-codes. When property aimed. the flares will illuminate the right part of the road very nicely and at the same time they should give you better down the road vision.
nice and there hella which means quality!!!!!!
I had DEPO's and they are just fine. You will need a new plug, your old one wont work, but other than that, DEPO's are OK. Definitely shine better than stock, and if you swap the adjustment mechanisms from the stock lights you have now, they will outlast your car.
Hella's are good. Seen a lot of complaints about Depo's being bad. the quality and beam pattern on my Hella E-codes is remarkable. WAY bettern than NA stock. Seen lots of posts by people who were trying to save a buck and then wished they'd waited and spent the $$ to get Hella's.
basically, we installed Smoked dual rounds on Dubbstarr21's getta... and well, after getting over the original fitment problems, ran into some major wiring issues(no harnesses/connectors/directions/diagrams provided with lights).. the stock jetta/golf headlight connector had three \"pins\". Ground, low beam, and high beam. The Hella has ground, low, high, and city light. And it seems that the pins on the right/left Hella lights do not match each other. After lots of guessing/testing we came up to this point: thats the low beam position... the high beams are on at maybe 25-30% power, low beams seem to be at 100%.... this is high beam: the highs are on at what seems to be 100%; and the lows at maybe 5%.
