subbed.... so this is a problem with the gen 3s too? I was about to buy a used set

 

That's my next purchase. HID's with new lenses.

 

So do any of these "cracks" physically compromise the lens, leading to moisture? Or is it more just a look issue?

I'm putting clear bra 3M vinyl on my Gen 4's.......FINGERS CROSSED it'll help haha

 

i have the cracks too in the drivers side and i hope to get replacements from the place i bought them on ebay and im gonna get hids this time so i hope no crackin this time.

 

Hey haven't been on in a while...but I've got both sets of 4th gens (chrome and black housing) and I was one of the first couple people to get them when they came out...mine have been through a rough winter and many miles and I have had zero issues with either set. Just thought I'd post my experiences.

 

Awesome! Thanks for the update!

 

Not a flaw they are just really hard to get in. take all the black push clip things so you can pull the bumper a off a little, then you just have to take you time. if it doesnt fit right you probably dont have both tabs in right.

 

i mean you probably could but thats just too much haha. get someone to help you and hold the bumper up. take you time guiding in the tabs on the bottom of the headlight.

 

maybe this will help a little haha

you guys take off the bumper to get the headlights out? haha

 

no

 

no their just a pain haha.

 

no issues with my gen IV's...been using them the past month

 

Does anyone else have all that light above the cut off look like that?

 

This^^

 

Looks like Glare to me. I don't have it in my Gen 1's. You might also try to look around for the "Squirrel Finder" fix. Apparently the projector shields have something in them that leaks light to allow you to see the street signs above your cutoff line. I think the fix was taping over the slit with aluminum ducting tape.

 

maybe if he wasnt a foot away from the garage. actually mine look flat no matter what lol

 

how can I contact depo?

 

update on my set which i've had since january this year. Passenger side has begun to start flaking/cracking on the top right above the high beam area. Guess they aren't top quality, but it is not that noticeable...yet. Been running 8000k HID in them from day 1. Probably starting cracking due to the crazy heat wave and me parking outside 100% of the time in this 100+ degree weather daily.

 

I'm looking to get these, hope I don't get this problem. My plan is to run 6k or 8k right from the start. Haven't decided on which yet though
