It will say Depo on the Depo lenses (don't know if it will say Esuse on the Esuse lenses). They are pretty much the same.

 

DEPO:
More "universal" style wiring, has red power wire direct to battery or 12v.
lens can be separated from housing
will say "DEPO" on lens

ESUSE:
More "oem" style wiring, plugs into brown 1-pin behind washer nozzle
lens is cemented to housing
will have a part number on lens

 

Here are pics of the comparision of the housing for the two.

Note the lense and surrounding housing is removable on the DEPO light (there are extra screws and a ledge as seen from the top and bottom in particular). The place wherer the two pieces connect to each other has been siliconed together on my housing in a vain attempt to stop the water from leaking in. Vents and wiring is also located in different places on the housing.

The DEPO light has water in it, but it's been in the house for months so I'm not sure why it has that. It's been in the house all closed up (besides the vent).

The DEPO light is on the left and the Esuse light is on the right.
Both light housing are from the right side of the car.

The hell are you bumping for?

You got your info.

 

so im still not sure which foglights i have

eran said that the depo fogs would have "depo" imprinted on the lense and the esuse one would have a part number on the lense. ....ok, mine have neither of those markings.

if someone would explain to me how to upload pics in my post i would show u what i mean.

and im thinkin that im missing some wires for my fogs. im guessing that it's the extension wires that goes into the interior

Omg...

 

Looks like DEPO wiring to me.

The foglights posted above were for a '96-'98, which might have something to do with why yours dont' look exactly the same.

I've had both DEPO and Esuse and the Esuse lights have been a million times better. The DEPO wiring looks like what you posted. The Esuse wiring plus straight into the stock foglight harness that's already on my car (all 6G Civics at least have a stock foglight harness).

 

here are some pics


EDITING: uploading morepics and trying to figure out how to ake it bigger

 

for 92-95 fogs, it's hard to tell which ones you have, since both ESUSE and DEPO hook up the same way for that year.

 

thats a close up on the foglights



those are the screw's. dont know which goes where

took pics of the wirings but did't turn out so good cause of the camera, so im going to take new one with a better camera so maybe someone can help me out with what plugs goes where.

box did't come with instruction....

 

Both my new DEPO foglights and my new Esuse foglights came in boxes labeled with the brand.
