I HAVE THE CARLAB 8K HID KIT BUT THESE ARE SPARKING AN INTEREST IN ME. I HAD AN ACCIDENT THAT HAS ME REPLACING MY DEPO HEADLIGHT HOUSINGS. I ASK SELLER QUESTION TO SEE IF MY KIT WILL WORK BUT NO RESPONCE BACK YET. I HAVE THE OEM LOOK DEPO HOUSINGS THESE ARE DIFFERENT BUT I THINK THEY WILL LOOK GOOD. ANYONE DELT WITH THESE HOUSINGS AND HID KIT AND HAD AN ISSUE?

the DEPO projector looks way better. These look obvious and clearly fake/aftermarket.

I have to agree with Frank. The link you posted above my post look much better. One thing to know off hand is they won't fit vehicles with Stock Xenons. Just a heads up!

Happy driving

2. FRONT RIGHT FENDER 100
3. DEPO HOUSINGS 420

STILL HAVE TO BUY PAINT AND PROTECTOR/IMPACT STRIP
