To those running 95-97 clear depot headlights

Was wondering if the lighting is better than stock? I would guess they would be since the glass is clear.

Lighting is slightly better than stock.
I didn't notice a massive difference in the beam pattern nor quality out output. I switched because I had a stone-hole in one of my stock headlights and they looked more modern than the fluted lens OEM headlights.

is the beam pattern decent, such as the light cutoff? i'm thinking about upgrading myself.

I posted pics of the beam pattern in my build thread, you can judge for yourself.

I'd say it's decent for a standard bulb type headlight, definitely no HID-esque cut off.
