These are the Perde by TYC projectors that are $97 on Amazon, and they come with 65w 9005 bulbs in both high and low positions. This is the best shot I have of the halogens:

Here is a shot with HIDs in them:

I will 2nd again on the Depos. They are still halogen bulbs yes, but the output and cut off is so much better than OEM. And for about $112 Amazon Prime, this is an easy, quick upgrade to OEM that gives you output without going the HID route. I have had them for just shy of 18 months at this point and worked great. Of course I drive in the concrete jungle, just my .02. :)

Do you have a link to those lights?
Mine say right on the light (on the lower left on the passenger lens), it says TYC in the plastic.
Mine were the only ones I could find for around $100 that looked like the stock Denali projectors.

Depos are awesome. Throw away the halogens though seriously. They only included the free set of bulbs with your purchase as a sales tactic. I can see through walls after swapping the halogens with 55w HID's

You don't HAVE to go back to halogens - Don't be ignorant. Adhere to local guidelines and utilize the abundance of well lit roadway.

Your beam shouldn't strike beyond 75' ahead or blind oncoming traffic.

Use a smart color on the highway not the "hey look at me" deep blue off-road or other nonsense colors of pride. Sure the pink is cute but we're not all rollin with Ken up to Barbies playhouse.

If you have questions about how to upgrade your light w/o getting pulled over here's the place to find out what up.

She can keep her hids, just replace the bulbs between 3000k-6500k and she won't have any problems, unless they're aimed up way high, then obviously aim down lol

Hello, all! I'm late coming into the headlight game here. I'm trying to do a lot of research before pulling the trigger on anything, as to not waste time or money, just like everyone else here. I'm having some trouble trying to find the Depo's to fit my '02 Tahoe anywhere. Are they being phased out? I will be contacting TRS for help, as well. Any help/advise is welcomed. Updating from the stock, feeble headlights is a must... period IMO. Something else I'm not seeing here is anything using LED's. Any particular reason why? Thanks!
