Much appreciated educating me and providing info
DEPO is just the brand that makes the "non-OEM" blacklines. They're typically a little bit darker than the OEM BMW Performance Blacklines.

I bought from modmy3.com for warranty reasons. The LED reverse light I bought is from modmy3 as well. The turn signal LED bulb i installed is from DDM tuning. It's their 60 LED amber bulb.

Standard halogen turn signals emit roughly 400 lumens (measure of brightness). The LED turn signals from ddm emit 420 lumens.

I like them.

I do, but none of them from when i put the LED turn signal in, so the amber halogens that they came with make the housings look darker.

I'll snap a few
Thanks DUI for the explanation .
