My cutoff is pretty jacked on one side, I'll take pictures at some point, but has anyone ever removed the cutoff shield and replaced it with a straight cutoff shield?

You don't want a straight cutoff. You want the cutoff to have a step shape to it. So you can set the left side to not blind oncoming traffic, and the right side of the step will aim a little higher to help light signs and such.

Yeah the step I'm fine with, mine look jacked up though, do they not? Pic is from a distance of like 20 feet or so, and I'm on a downslope, but the cutoff and the hot spot of my lights are what's causing me concern as well as my cutoff pattern is a bit different than what I've seen of everyone elsesIMG_0541.JPG IMG_0542.JPG

The right projector looks about right for depos... the left projector the hotspot is off. Check to make sure your bulb is installed right. Looks like it's angled, therefore messing with your hotspot.

If you want more and better, then swap for some mini h1s or d2s...

By that you mean a retrofit right?

@OhFourChevy A couple questions. First I realize this thread is roughly 15 months old. MY projectors looks just like his do. I contacted the retrofit source a few mins ago. Did you ever go through with this or just deal with the DEPO? Also what is that front bumper?

@YukonXL04 How would LEDs work in the DEPO projectors?

Lots of people have done leds and claim to be happy. Never messed with them. Depo's are pretty sub par in terms of projectors.
