My S had a pair of the Depo rear lights fitted when I got it and although they worked fine the fit wasn’t that great to be honest, I.e compared to the oem ones they didn’t run flush to the body work and there was a bit of a lip/ step up. Look at my photo below at the left hand Depo light vs oem at the top you can see the lip clearly. Still good lights but glad I have gone back to oem albeit slightly modified ones to give me the red rear light modern look.
That's all I needed to see, thank you. I'm out. No Depo for me.

I wasn’t too happy with the fit either until I noticed that the foam gasket supplied with the Depo lights was thinner than the OEM. After swapping the gaskets and reinstalling the lights the fit was much better.

Just buy a pair of used OEM red and white ones. Woody might have a set. OEM headlights and tail lights are so much nicer then the aftermarket ones.
I looked but they were either way more expensive, or within $100 of the Depos but scuffed up. I like the look of the Depos and don't think they scream aftermarket, except maybe to those in the know...assuming the fit is good. I'll know when I get them on Thursday!

Yeah I agree the tail lights don't look too bad. As long as they fit well I think you will be happy. Whatever you do DON'T get the aftermarket headlights. A friend of mine has them........JUNK.
