    Depo vs TYC headlight

    Yesterday I installed brand new Depo OEM 92-93 Accord headlight and glass part is not very smooth like OEM one.
    Feels like glass needs more sanding! Also Depo logo is very largly marked on the glass. lol

    So here is my question.
    How is the 92-93 Accord TYC OEM headlight quality?
    Is it same as Depo?

    I bought 92-93 replacements off ebay, theyre eagle eye lights brand, glass lens with the lines and alignment nipples, pot metal/aluminum light buckets. shit they even came with all the bulbs. perfect fit (as much as perfect ,my front end is tweaked) 100% satisfied here and theyre were only like 100 bucks total, 80- for the lights and the rest for shipping

      I got depo ones before. The reflector quality wasnt that good so the light output wasnt the same as OEM. The glass was thinner also.

      I ended up going to the junkyard for some OEM ones, found a set that wasnt pitted.
      What makes me laugh about forums, is that no matter how much you try to help someone, they dont take the advice. Go ahead and do it the hard way.

      You got to respect what you drive, and appreciate what you have, making the best of what you got. and if that means putting CAI, HID's, a phat stereo system, and a idiot in the drivers seat...then so be it!

      Retro!
