Hella Euro light review

I finally caved in and bought OEM Hella euro lights after using depos for the past 2 years. Since I can't find any photos of the beam pattern or light output of these lights online, I thought I would share. I also deleted the parking lights while installing these, for a more euro look. While the depos weren't terrible I definitely would recommend going OEM for anyone considering getting euro lights. Once you see the difference you can't go back.

The cutoff looks a bit sharper, for sure.

How is the housing quality? My Depo plastic was super brittle.

Where did you purchase the headlights at? I have been wanting to get a pair for my 300E but would like to avoid ebay.

The plastic quality is much stronger for sure, as well as having a complete seal on the back cover. The depos wouldn't fit 100%. I had to order them from ebay.de and use google translate, they are abundant over there. Only paid 220 CAD shipped to my door. The guy even threw in the euro amber corners.
