WTB: 02-03 wrx headlights

Looking for some good condition oem headlights. Was also looking at the jdm depo reps but from what I read, their ****. If anyone has a personal opinion on the depo's please lmk. Thanks

I don't have the Depo JDM reps. But I do have the Depo OEM copy headlights. I'm on my second set. Both the previous and current sets are complete junk.

Both sets have the following problems:
  • Not properly sealed: moisture gets inside and it fogs up
  • Cheap aiming gear: teeth strip easily making it very hard to adjust
  • Cheap lenses: visible distortion

I heard Depo is supposed to be an OEM supplier. I don't see how that's possible given their terrible quality.

I don't know if yours are broken or just looking shabby but for what it's worth I just had mine done by Elliot at Detail Addict and the product of his work is better than any set of bugeye headlights I could find for sale at any price.

Yeah that's almost the same problems as the jdm reps. Probably a waste of 4 bills

Mine are very broken. A blown tire flew at me on the freeway and busted the mounts
