Headlight Vapor

So my headlight has some water in it and im certain im gonna have to replace it soon. Both my headlights are in bad shape. Driver side has faulty wiring and no bulb will light up in low beam. My passenger side has water in it and will probably short out a bulb sooner or later.

This is sort of a good and bad thing for me. The bad thing is that im gonna have to dish out money to get new headlights. The good thing is that the current headlights are nasty pre-lci halogens and a new set would probably be an upgrade. My question to you guys out there is what should my next move be?

Im thinking of getting some DEPO headlights but I cant find any reputable dealer selling them.

Get LCI Halogens. They will be plug and play, and have angel eyes

All aftermarket HID have their problems. If you really want bulletproof HID you need to shell out for OEM Xenons. Best non-OEM option is probably Umnitza.

-10000000x for Umnitza!!

All of the DEPOs are the same, but if you get projector retrofits through Umnitza, they outsource it to a shitty retrofitting company, and you get condensation, terrible beam patterns, and just awful customer service.

See the Umnitza Fx-R Depo thread for proof.

Get one thing, and one thing only from Umnitza: LED rings. For anything else, don't trust them

LCI halogens are the best for plug-n-play and money.
LCI xenon are the best without care for money.
