That's why I put "genuine" in quotes. I bought my lights from you - they are marked as Depo lights and you buy from Dectane. As you've said, others (like FVD) sell Depo lights (maybe unauthorized). Since FVD is a German company maybe they also have a Dectane source and then provide the lights to FVD US to sell to US customers so who's to say their Depo's are counterfeit?
(By the way I drive myself their exhaust and flash tuning, and love it.)

The issue may be that while you are the only authorized importer of Dectane lights in North America, you may not be the only authorized importer of Depo lights in North America. Obviously there are Depo lights coming in from someone other than you, counterfeit or not. I'm just trying to bring some clarity to this - I am not an unhappy customer of CarLightPro...in fact i couldn't be more pleased. If Dectane is the only one selling Depo, then you may have an issue with Dectane (or even Depo) and your exclusivity agreement.

I bought mine direct from Dectane. I refused to pay carlightpros 500$ "convenience" fee.
I occasionally get a taillight error but as only when I had the lights on when starting. It always cleared after I turned them off.
Frankly one would be better off buying from dectane, Frank or FVD than the BS prices you pay from CLP. Heck, buy another set for 500$ then send back the bad one in the new box.
Again here is the fix and its way less than the 500$ premium... did I mention CLP's stupid markup enough? https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...-lights-6.html
