^ for a factory 03-05 hid car, the 06+ are direct plug and play. (you can snip or keep the blue wire, that wire will make the orange turn lamp into a drl essentially unless you snip it)

the harness for the 03-05 is significantly different than for an 06+. even the bulb is different as the 06+ is a d2s bulb (true projector) where as the 03-05 is a d2r bulb (r being for refelctive). the bixenon lamp esseentially has a flapper so when you turn the high beam on, the flapper lowers itself allowing more light output. same bulb as your actual headlight bulb. the 03-05 uses a seperate non hid bulb as a high beam.

if the harness/ballast/bulb/ etc is included, thats a hell of a price. you can get oem spec depo (chrome) for about 375 a piece, fully equipped, and they are oem spec quality. depo hasnt let me down on any of the lights ive ever worked on.

 

So i would essentially only need a new high/low beam bulb( the bulb that has both combined).if i get that bulb the rest should plug up? granted i switch over the harness ballast etc. that would leave me with an extra wire for the high beam bulb that would not exist on the 06+ headlights.

 

Imma buy em and try them out. I wanted to open and paint my 03s but this is way better. Buy new bulbs etc good deal

 

keep us updated.this may be my next purchase

 

Yeah keep us updated! If I didn't just get my headlights I would've been interested in these. I'm thinking depo just came out with these so I don't think anyone has them installed yet

 

Subscribing for updates...

 

Just a reminder, companies of authentic products dont lose too much business from replicas because customers that buy replicas wouldve never bought something 3x the price to begin with .



Also these are ONLY $289?? I would love to give them a try. I much rather prefer OE lights but Ive had DEPO before and they work alright. Not a big fan of the all black though. Does the seller also have chrome?

 

I would run them in chrome as my sits, but wouldn't want them for my car when it was a daily driver.

 

let us know how they go. I would be interested in these if I didn't just buy a set of oem with bulbs and everything for a steal.

 

Hello new here, I ordered a set of these to replace my oem headlights covered in spider cracks. They will be here Wednesday ill throw up some pictured then.

 

lol at the ability to turn ANY thread into a real vs fake argument. OP, in for final results.
Plus, you suck for having replica anything...........................................LOL!


just kidding. My old sig: "Brand name this, replica that-butt dyno approved"

 

I put in my oem 06+ headlights and damn, the cutoff is ****ing amazing. the high beam is scary bright.

 

You have these lights touge?

zoom you factory hid?

Awesome, keep us posted. I was just planning to pain my 04's too but i'd much rather upgrade to the 06+ if these depo's are decent quality.

I'd imagine you could just buy an aftermarket d2s hid kit instead of trying to source stockers.

Is the hi/lo flapper part of the headlight unit? I'd be concerned about the longevity of those components if anything. Everything else is just plastic anyways..

 

no I don't but I do have the oem lights from a 08. if you have the money, do the upgrade. amazing clarity.

 

Uh yea thx. 4 nothing. Iv owned 06 lights. Anyways

 

In for zeh updates

 

I wish the turn signal part was black though, I know it destroys the function but it looks so much better.
