Anyone know if they will fit? Other sources? Not necessarily interested in angel eyes, projectors or HID, just want glass lenses - plastic doesn't hold up well here in south FL. | | | 12-07-2013, 11:09 PM | #2 | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2008 Location: Los Angeles, CA Posts: 1,464 | Those should fit, but if you're looking for a budget replacement with a glass lens, I would look for the DJ Auto headlights over the DEPO's. Just my $.02 __________________ 1995 318ti Base - Cosmosschwarz/Sandgrau R.I.P. 1997 318ti Active - Alpinweiß III/Sandgrau 2013 328i Coupe - Le Mans Blau | | | 12-07-2013, 11:31 PM | #3 | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2005 Location: Florida Posts: 178 | Quote: Originally Posted by zoner Those should fit, but if you're looking for a budget replacement with a glass lens, I would look for the DJ Auto headlights over the DEPO's.

I'll look into the DJ Auto headlights. | | | 12-08-2013, 03:44 AM | #4 | Senior Member Join Date: Dec 2011 Location: Santa Rosa, CA Posts: 407 | The headlights are all the same between coupe/sedan/ti. It's the turn signal corner lenses that are different (ti's share only sedan fitment for those). __________________ 1997 318ti 5-speed Moreagrün 1996 318ti auto Hellrot (retired) | | | 12-08-2013, 05:58 PM | #5 | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2005 Location: Florida Posts: 178 | Any suggestions about who's good for the DJ Auto headlights and who to avoid? | | | 12-23-2013, 01:58 AM | #7 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: asdfasdf Posts: 10,002 | same one's I've got, installation's actually pretty simple, plug it into the original headlights plugs and then just tap the grey wire into whatever power source you use for the angel eyes | | | 12-23-2013, 02:08 AM | #8 | Junior Member Join Date: Jun 2013 Location: new zealand Posts: 5 | my work imports depo and tyc headlamps out of taiwan and they work 100% just make shure they are for the ti | | | 12-23-2013, 03:45 AM | #9 | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2005 Location: Florida Posts: 178 | Quote: Originally Posted by tiFreak same one's I've got, installation's actually pretty simple, plug it into the original headlights plugs and then just tap the grey wire into whatever power source you use for the angel eyes | Cool.

Looking to buy these for my '96. Thanks Brother! | Decided not to do the installation myself. It's going in for some service this Thursday (local BMW / Mercedes shop), so I'm having them do the installation. I'll post a review / photos. | | | 01-16-2014, 04:19 AM | #15 | Senior Member Join Date: Feb 2012 Location: Sacramento, CA Posts: 2,451 | Happy New Year TI'ers! So, I picked up a pair of DEPO HID projectors with LED angel eye conversion installed. Need more light for my old eyes, used to my 540's Hellas. For those of you who have wired in their Angel eyes, where did you wire them into and when are they lit? The limited instructions note to tie the supply wire into the parking lights. I was thinking to wire in a relay into a 12V ignition on wire to turn the Angels on whenever the ignition is switched on. Anyone set this up? I can figure it out, but want to cross check with folks who have done this configuration. I have set this up with a Zionsville on my 540's electric fan relay. Thanks! __________________ 1998 318ti Sport - "Cali" Schwartz II/Schwartz sport interior, Cali top 1998 318ti Sport - "Max" Schwartz II/Schwartz sport interior, S52 1997 318ti Sport - "Tiny" Schwartz II/Schwartz sport interior 1995 318ti Active - "Blanca" Alpineweib III/Schwartz leather interior Other Current Bimmers: 2006 530i / 2000 2.3L Z3 / 1997 1.9L Z3 / 1999 540it 1997 318ti Sport - "Huera" - RIP 1995 318ti Active - RIP 1995 318ti Sport - "Tiny" Sold 1994 325i Sedan - "Jade" - Sold 1991 318ic - "Bert" - Sold 1985 635csi sold 1984 533i "Max" Sold 1984 318i sold BMWCCA #160411 SUPPORT 318ti.org!
