Headlight assemblies by Depo and Tyc

I'm out of warranty and my passenger headlamp drl led stopped working a while ago. Driver side headlight replaced while still under warranty. Dealer says these headlight assemblies are $1300 plus tax.

At that price I'd rather disable drl functions entirely. Because new headlights are going to eventually do the same thing.

Looking on rockauto I see depo and Tyc headlamps which are capa certified. Capa sometimes is crappa so I was wondering if any of you had ran these headlights and had some feedback on them? Rockauto shows these as the preferred options.

I really want to get the bad passenger light off there and take it apart. I'm fairly sure these led strips can be fixed with a 50 cent switching transistor but I don't know how or if I can get into the headlamp. On my Toyota I had to pull the bulbs and use a warm oven to separate the lens from the lower housing.

If you have experience with these headlights let me know . If nobody does then I will report back in a few weeks.

Thanks!

Wheel bearings - timken or moog?

2020 ascent, 156k

Need rear wheel bearings and the dealer said roughly 1700 after tax to do them. Since they are full hub assemblies I'll just do them myself.

Normally I would just buy the timken bearings and keep moving along. However, on rockauto the preferred (heart icon) is actually a moog bearing.

I use moog on my jeep and Infiniti so I'm sure it's fine too.

But I figured I would post here to see if anyone has direct experience with these two rear ascent wheel bearing choices. If nobody does then I'll report back after a couple months so it helps someone else.

Have a great day and thanks for reading!
