Re: Actually they ARE great. Awesome bang for the buck...

So I went ahead and threw together my own harness since I had all the supplies to do it. Turned out great and I just had to make the jumpers for the autocheck light. The lights look amazing, it's just now getting dark so I can go out and aim them properly. Thanks.

ImportVision

ImportVision is where I've heard of most people getting them.

Yessir. Either straight from them or at a slight discount in their ebay auctions.

I realize this is a very old thread to bump, but I am getting DEPO headlights for my Coupe Quatto and curious about this upgrade. Looks like 20v.org is gone. Does anyone have the sketch referenced in the above post?
