Helix headlights

**jaredsogn** · 12-01-2008 11:17 PM

Hey guys, searched a little and these haven't been discussed much. Wondering how many people have installed the Helix Ecode headlights. They are on ebay for about $200. Couple questions: How are they for light output, beam pattern, etc. Also, do you need the HID version or can you just use the non-HID version they sell, since I assume both are just H7 bulb anyways. Also, do they have city lights? Thanks!

Also, what are your thoughts on these in comparison?

These look like the Depo headlights as the instruction sheet that's shown is the exact same.

Yup, I've had them for almost a year now and have gone through a winter without any leaks/fogging.

Ask Mike, AudiSportB5S4, how he likes them. He's had them on his car for a long time and as far as I know, he absolutely loves them! He hasn't had any problems.

Thanks guys! I ordered a set along with a 55W H7 HID kit. I will post of some pics and thoughts after I get them. After researching a little, I found another guy who ordered from Emotion Racing and they ended up being Depo's, so I'll see when they get here. I figured, with the MSN live cashback discount, this whole thing with headlights and xenons cost me about $250 shipped. Anyways, I'll post some pics when I get them in.
