Maybe Depo started making whistlered headlights instead of the old half painted one's?


$152 shipped> $250 shipped

Sure appears that way. If it's true, it's bs to sell us the same exact thing with a $150 additional price tag for their regular price and +$100 on a sale price.

That's like the douche who bought the $180 stainless headers off of ebay and tried selling them here for $350+ claiming he modified them. He was banned because of that BS too I believe.

The people who ordered from depo got full whistler lights. Looks like depo no longer does the half whistler. 6LE confirmed when he said that depo now paints them full whistler in house in his thread.

Unfortunately I am getting screwed and they made me look stupid. We bought stock ones and modded them ourselves and reshipped. Then they said we could pay them the same extra we charged and they'd do it. Turns out they already did it AND were charging others LESS...

Same thing happened with Double Dins and OEM CMEs to us. Neither of them do we still use the same vendor now. If our price doesn't come down so I can lower our price as well I will just take them down...

Damn Mark, that's some BS right there! Hopefully you can lower your price and keep providing them.

Any update on the projectors?

Yes they come with brackets. They take some adjusting though to aim right

I have the "black depo" headlights. Also a stock whisler. I have no complaints. They fit 99%. The 1% was the passenger side I had trouble getting a tab to line up for mounting.. but.. that's to be expected for non-oem parts.

I would say these are "full" whistlers. I was gonna buy normal ones, take em apart, and try to do it myself, but this saved me time. Sorry to hear they're undercutting you 6Le. I got mine off ebay.

^^It sucks and sorry for those who want "recourse" but it is not like I was getting them cheaper. We add 10% and that is it, just being honest. We added 10% to what we paid...

Let's be real though, I bought plenty of headlights in my time and $250 for a PAIR of brand new whistlered lights is still not a rip off by any means.

Yeah, it totally blows that the company is selling way cheaper but I remember paying $350 for non whistlered that didn't even fit.

Not trying in any way to diminish the fact people could have gone cheaper, just saying it was still a good deal, just apparently not the best deal

That sucks they are doing that to you 6le.

Does anyone have pics of the full whistler on a black car so I can get an idea of how it would look?

Got mine in today off of Amazon. Shipping took a solid week and a half, but they are the fully blacked out ones.

Ordered my off amazon over the weekend, can't wait to get them. Anyone having issues with the rubber on them, like on the projector lights? I'll probably be the lucky one that gets the half whistler ones.
