    Depo Ecodes Installed

    My first thoughts on these...not so much... There is are a lot of hotspots and the beam pattern is wavey. The fitment is also not too good. I sheared off one of the bottom pegs because they made them with an extra peice of plastic the hits the cup and it just broke right off. The projector also looks smaller than the valeo. I have a 4500k 55w DDM kit in there and the stockers seem just as bright. They are also very yellow compared to the stock 4300k. Maybe some more adjusting/breaking in is needed? Idk, I guess you get what you pay. Tomorrow I am going to post a write up as requested. Just too tired to do it now...

    Your light my look yellowish because when you step up the wattage. ie. 35w to 55w the light temperature color reduces. So a 35w 4500k will not look yellow but a 55w 4500k may.

    Re: Depo Ecodes Installed

    That only holds true if the bulbs are 35w bulbs on 55w ballasts. This makes me suspicious that the bulbs in the DDM kit are really 35w bulbs.

    Also to the OP, I remember reading in a thread a while back that the beam pattern on the DEPO's improved quite a bit after being adjusted.

    I love my Depos. I just used my stock Ballast. Lighting, fitment, and quality are great.
