    These are 7.5"? not 5.75" and they look cheap like depo garbage.

      regardless of the size, they are the same style (and apparent build quality, as you have pointed out) as the ones the OP linked to on ebay. the headlights should be smoked the way Hella did it, a full crosshair.

        Not always. For instance the E28 Euro E-Codes actually throw out a light pattern. Is it better in a projector? Certainly.



        I had Depo in both my E36 vehicles. I liked them.

          Those e-codes have the _/_/ cut off like the projectors. I asked about this awhile back and got feed back from others that have been blinded by HID's in those e-codes. And one was in a 4x4 truck that sat high.

            Sounds like some of those with the trucks need to suck it up... they are driving a truck... While driving my vert and e30 I am below the light level of almost everything on the road. Regular SUVs/Trucks with Halogens 'blind' me... random people have HIDs in there regular housings. I notice it and coming and don't blindly state into it like a deer... it just has never been a problem for me...

            For reference... 55W 5K E28 E-Code






            Again for reference. A set of those 'cheap crosshair' lights with 55W 5K HID:

              this light pattern is as bad as the stock sealed beams from 1985.
