I have a pair of Depos(they were on ebay new for 195), and I can say that in the beginning when i installed them i saw condensation a few times, but for some reason it went away :roll:. I can say the quality is the same as the hella, and are basically identical, and the depos are overall i cheaper way than getting hella's.

Thought I'd share my HID knowledge for those of you who are interested - I did a retrofit of X5 projectors and Hella ballasts and ignitors in my 4Runner not long ago. The bulbs used in 95% of cars with OEM Xenon lights have 4100k - 4300k, BMW included. It will still give you the blue xenon look because of the sharp cutoff, and it will give you the best light output. Don't plug the ballasts directly onto your stock wiring harness, you're going to need to get the stock harness to trigger a relay that sends power from the battery to the ballast. While HID bulbs are technically 35w of constant draw, during ignition the draw is astronomical. I don't recall exact numbers, but I do know that if you leave the stock harness plugged into the ballast it will work, but there is a high possibility of doing damage to your stock wires.
