Depo projectors for e90?
Hi guys, long time browser few time poster.
Was just wondering if depo have made projector/corrona rings headlights for e90s yet? Gave up on looking for projectors a while back because they are damn expensive but came across an ebayer claiming to have depo projectors for pre-lci e90s. |

ynote90, Ive chased down some Depo dealers and they all say not ready yet, So guess its a waiting game at this stage. Ive tried to contact Depo but they don't reply to my emails.

yea thats the listing im looking at. Got some pictures from the seller, they look pretty nice, they look exactly like the pictures he have on the listing, still in box and plastic wrapping.
If the rings are lit by H1s, then it shouldn't throw an error code? What do you guys think? im very tempted to go pick them up |

If they are any good would love to know the brand because for that price that's not bad if they are half decent quality. Doesn't look like ccfl lighting either. Let us know if you do end up getting them and what fitments like.

If all goes well with the projectors i'll definately go xenons.
Well the picture that he sent me, of the box that the lights apparently came in had a DEPO label and Item number on it. they look quite decent and only $400 compare to oem, so im gonna give it a try. will update you guys when they arrive and install.

Hey guys, my bad, been super busy.
Finally have the lights installed. Its basically plug and play with no error codes. the only problem i had was the indictors in our cars are "contact Socket" style and the stock ones did not fit. had to order from the Bmw stealers for $40 each! thats $80 for two pieces of plastic thats listed on realoem.com for $14 a pair. Had to be ordered anyways so that took another 2 weeks. the lights are perfect if you are looking for projectors but as far as the "angel eyes" go, these aren't the lights for you if you want them on in the mornings. because the eyes are lit by 4 T5 bulbs in each ring, the lights do not spread around the whole ring, therefore you can only see 4 T5 light dots and not rings. they do however look like rings at night. The pair of lights i recieve are unfortunately LHD, therefore i had to adjust it right down to a flat level. as for the projection pattern, its quite average, but then again, i do not have HIDs yet, but the will expect it to be alot better. I have no idea what the brand is but it saids depo all over it, eg. wires, box, housing, bulbs. the the guy before me did buy it from ebay. will have the pics up asap.
