i cant figure out which ones i want, ppl say that the 3 led on the gen2's burn out easily and are hard to replace, and they have a horrible cut-off but i like the way they look better then the gen3's. The gen3's are still nice and you can replace the 3 leds on them easily(correct me if im wrong) and the cut-off on them is alot better then the gen2's. CORRECT ME IF IM WRONG ON ANY OF THIS PLEASE. I dont know which ones to get i need to see some pics, can someone help me out, and no i dont want retros lol

 

i bought and install DEPO Gen 4's (black) on my black SSTC. Very happy with them, they have a 'stock' look yet they're projector HIDs. I'm using 6000k HIDs in them.

PICS!

 

yea i actually like those alot! now im considering them!!!! i just kind of want the "cool" halos lol, is it considered rice now to have that or something(the halos)

 

Honestly bro, get what you like, I would NOT consider halo's rice. Ummm Camaro V6/RS and SS/RS have halo's as do many BMW's. I think halos as well as what I have are both stylish looks. The Gen 4 DEPO's are plug and play, took me like 2 hours with 2 of my buddies to install them (first time ever installing projector HID's in any car delayed us a bit). They're high quality parts and IMO reasonably priced.

Here's a link on ebay from a top rated seller to purchase them (and they provide up close pictures of the headlights) 05-09 CHEVY COBALT BLACK PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS PAIR NEW - eBay (item 310288238469 end time Feb-13-11 17:23:54 PST)

 

if you like them get them, some will tell you they are some won't its all personal opinion

 

lets get some more pics!

 

and can someone please help me out with this...for the gen3's is there a spot in the back of the headlights where u can easily just replace the 3 leds?

 

I don't know anything about the gen 2s or 3s, but you could jus get the gen 4s(depos) an put some ccfl halos on em..
THAT would look sexy as shiiiiiiiit an its easy, jus tap em in withyour parking lights.

 

That would require taking the headlights apart to put in the halos, not as easy as one would think since the gen4s don't have halos or LEDs in them.

 

Here are my gen 2's that I stripped of all hardware, painted, 8000K HIDs, and made my own LED halos

YouTube - my new cobalt RGB LED headlights

 

1st gen FTW...

 

well... it'd be as easy as takin apart stockers an putting some halos in there... superglu, sealant, oven, wires, done

 

Gen 1 Chrome

 

gen1's have the best cutoff out of all the aftermarket projectors.. just saying

 

Ive had my gen 2's on for 2 years and i never took them out for winter and never had an issues with them..the gen 2s are the brightest halo i have had all generations..
My sig has pictures in it of the headlights

 

Get what you like.......................

 

my 3rd gens with 8k hids. had them for over a year and the led's and halos still work =)
