Looking for some new replacement headlights for my father-in-law's 99 camry and came across these

Seller claim they are made by Depo, is it true?? Anyone has experience w/ these headlights??

Yep. They're made by DEPO and BRAND NEW (for the gen 4.0). Search around the forums for quality info. If theyre anything like the 3rd gen DEPO lights, they're about the same as OEM ones... tiny bit worse output wise but MUCH more ascetically pleasing.

^Yup!

I'd definitely recommend them as i got them and i absolutely love them

I got the black ones and i think they totally make the look completely different

Also i got in probably got them in less then 5 days or exactly 5days, i forget

Heres >Mine< if your not sure I'd say DO IT! lol

i also know there is 1 other guy who got the diamond chrome one.

EDIT: .Camryman97. is the one who has the diamond chrome depo's so search for his threads for info on them

thanks for the feedback..as long as they are made by Depo, quality should be good or near OEM..
how is the light output through?? my father-in-law's headlamps are all fogged and I want to get him something that not only look nice but also will have better light output..

Yeah the quality is great. I know what you mean by being all fogged, as for me it seemed that issue was resolved with the new headlights. Also I just have normal bulbs from my local Canadian tire so if you ordered some really bright bulbs off of eBay I believe that issue will be non-existent.

but pm .Camryman97. and ask what he thinks about the light difference and if its better than OEM.

The only way you'll get great light output is by retrofitting. Too much work for your father in law if its not like a birthday gift or something (no disrespect) so just go with HIR bulbs to get higher light output than regular bulbs.
