So my headlights are up for sale. Now you might be thinking "thank god! Joey has finally seen the light!". Hold your horses. I'm going to be getting a black version of what I have. I'm still going to have the bi-colored angel eyes, so gtfo. They do not come with the plugs for the angel eyes or the h1 4100k bulbs, so you gotta buy your own from any parts store (autozone, oriley, pepboys, advanced auto). They are really cheap. Look at my garage for pics. The duds on top can also have the same plugs attached to them. I just never did it because I was to lazy to remove the housing after I spent an hour aligning them on the car. $125 + shipping (I'll throw in free insurance if it gets purchased within the week). __________________ Come get a ti-shirt Quote: From the e30 M3, evolved the e36.

It is a well known mod in the VW scene. http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=1567138 __________________ ~Dave~ 98 328ti Morea Grun slicktop 11 128i space gray slicktop 13 JGC WK2 Deep Cherry Search | RealOEM | | | 02-01-2009, 07:28 AM | #5 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2008 Location: Austin Posts: 3,059 | I thought taking off bimmer lights are much more difficult to pry off, then put back together. How many bmw owners have done that? __________________ Come get a ti-shirt Quote: From the e30 M3, evolved the e36.

If these don't sell, then I'll risk it. Luckily I still have my stock headlights. __________________ Come get a ti-shirt Quote: From the e30 M3, evolved the e36.
