    and the clear tails



    got yellow lamin-x film for the fogs, and clear for the headlights. Also notice the 525tds grills next to the fog lights

    No, they are made by Depo, i bought them off of the ebay store from www.procarparts.com. I tried to find a link to an auction, but they dont seem to have any for sale right now. go to www.procarparts.com and find their number and they will be able to tell you if they have any available. They're $250 from there, or $139 on ebay, little tip

    The depo lights look sweet. Do you know if they are E-approved? Somewhere on the lens(es) there should be a letter E with a circle around it and maybe a number after it. I think I see one in the second picture, on the right side of the low beam lens, but I'm not sure. A detailed shot of a lens would be awesome!

    yah they fit fine, the bulb sockets were tight a few times, but they fit well after some work. The gaskets had to be re-glued, but are fine now.

    I have the same headlights, and yes they are the "E" pattern. 100% certain on that. I highly recommend them and I also recommend getting new fogs and re-using your old screw-on wiring adaptor and using it to install HID H1 bulbs 4200K NO HIGHER. Hope this helps. I will post pics for anyone interested in the HID conversion technique I utilized

    Thanks for confirming. I'll put the depo lights into consideration.
