::.. To anyone with Depo halo/angel eye projectors

Can you tell me what bulb the DEPO halos use? If you know, that's great. If you can take a picture of it, even better! I'm going to swap in white ones but I'd like to make this a one time job. Any change to the bulbs need the entire headlamp removed (in contrast to all the OTHER aftermarket ones). It would save quite a bit of hassle. Thanks!

My Inpro angel eyes says "Depo" on the back... Same stuff diffrent wrapping?

Do you mean the bulbs in the halo ring, or the bulbs in projector?

Bulbs in the ring. They're really small... like half the size of 194 wedges... that's all I remember :(

Also -- does anyone know where to get an adapter/harness to connect the headlights to the stock 9006 connector

Cut and splice H1 (spades). What are the odds you are going to get stock headlights again? :) Don't hardwire, just put spade ends on it.

I cut and spliced... I'm going to connect the angel eyes to power tomorrow... is there a trick to it?

I noticed a power and ground wire... I also noticed another wire with a connector similar to the headlight connector.. where does that go?

Trace the wires to see where they go :) Post a pic and we'll work it out. Hey do you have the Depo halos then? Can you post a pic of the little tiny ring bulbs? Maybe they have model etching on it... :|

I have Depo halos just like yours.... I'm thinking of bypassing the entire angel eye harness and just plugging into the parking lights.

How do I get to the angel eye bulbs?

Just follow the biggest bundle of wires :)

See where the yellow rings are? On the Depo ones, the yellow rings represent the plastic circular cover. Just underneath them are the bulbs.

I bought adaptors...I have a real mental block that doesn't allow me to cut up factory wiring harnesses on cars that are worth more than $50 unless I'm REALLY sure I'll never want to go back.

www.rallylights.com had the 9005/9006 adaptors. They were tough to find because you need the (male?) gender of the bulb, not the gender of the harness. They had them for around $6, IIRC. Good bulb selection there and good prices, too. I also ordered some H1, H4, and LED lighting for my Corvair project there, I've always been happy with the product, price, and shipping.
