Depo is Chinese, I believe, and Bosch and/or Hella are MB OEM.

I know you did , however you also stated "don't think i would buy outside of depo honestly"

Both Bosch and Hella are available from sources online, other than a MB dealer.

I had Depo corner lights and they were crap. Didn't even fit snugly. Took them off after 2 weeks.

we are talking after market headlights... so i dont see where oem comes into play? of course oem is ideal but most of the people in this thread don't want to deal with the hassle or have the know how to retro fit face lift headlights on their vehicles.

so i think you're arguing a completely different point, they are looking for easy simple plug and play upgrade, and frankly oem is anything but that.

The issue with Depo or any aftermarket brand is the leveling and/or dynamic cornering lenses/motors are not available. Stick with OE and get the best - not some chinese crap.

Any websites where these are available or I can have a look? I would really like to find some like the link I posted, with the LED's incorporated into them.
