Dam dude that jeep did that?? that Suckss ... we should meet some time. I'm around the UCF area some times and I live by universal
I was also interested in the depo's.. Hopefully i can see them in person.

Thanks, I'll take a look but I think theyre the normal non projector type.



JDM = $800, which is out of my budget to fix the car. Since I already have HIDs I was thinking of getting the DEPO projectors.

If you pay full dealer price for jdm headlights, you are crazy. I have seen them on here for as cheap as $400.

Damn dude. There was just an article on cnn today about the increased number of SUV's on the road has been leading to a much higher rate of cars being totaled due to uneven bumper height. I guess this is an example.

I saw an article on Autoblog about that today as well. My situation is definitely a prime example of that.

Just letting you know Depo headlights use an H1 bulb for the low beam. Stock 04-05 headlights use a 9005 bulb so you would have to get a new set of HID's

Aww crap...thanks for letting me know. Does the JDM version use the H1 for the low beam as well?

Yeah I go to UCF so I'm there Mon-Thurs.

I haven't seen any lately, but I'll keep an eye out for some. Being on a time constraint won't help, gotta get my car fixed asap.

Check out ebay and amazon, they are selling depo projectors for 200 shipped, really cant beat that. 04-05 no conversion harness needed I think, but for 02-03 you do?

Glad you're ok and it looks like the EP should have a relatively cheap repair.

P.S. if you want depos, I have them in my F/S thread. Bought off the site vendor Speed Star Racing. Only used for a couple weeks.

The JDM halogen's use an H1 the JDM HID version uses a D2S bulb i believe. What a lot of people are doing is buying the depo headlights and swapping in a set of TSX projectors with D2S bulbs.

too bad i sold my LHD EDM R projectors...i wouldve sold 'em to ya brah....

JDM/EDM lights FTW :)

As for the hood, if going carbon fiber I like white ep3s with clean look, (so white hood with 2 square vents on each side) cant remember the make of the hood but thats my fav

my depo's lasted 2 days before moisture entered, then 2 days later the harness they sent me crapped

Hmm...I'll see what I can find. If nothing comes up I'll just stick with stock headlights and my current HIDs, which I've been very happy with.

I don't think the carbon fiber hood would be worth it for me. I think you're referring to the Mugen style hood.

I've read 2-3 years then 2 days...lol thats not good. Thanks for the info, I'll keep it in mind.
