After Liam told us of the difference in light output from the Depo unit I thought I would post some details which might give reason to why they are so much better, plus a few other differences.
I'll post some actual light output comparison photos once I've got my car up and running, both with Nighbreakers and aftermarket HID so all things are covered.

- Wiring
- Depo's is much thicker gauge. Nissan's looks too thin considering draw.

DEPO

- Lens
- Nissan's has ripples which will diffuse the light a lot. Depo's you can clearly see a more transparent glass.

DEPO

- Surround
- A small thing but Nissan's is more satin. So any light spill won't get bounced as well as Depo. Handy for picking up cat eyes and signage in the distance,

DEPO

- Indicator
- Nothing to do with light output, just showing the difference in lens design.
