Default angel eyes

im looking to get angel eyes for my 95 318ti with stock head lights. I want just the halos. What are your recomendations. i looked at one set on ebay... but they said it will fit cars "with projector ellipsoid low beam headlights and removable glass lens or US headlights, non replaceable sealed plastic lenses must upgrade to euro projector headlights first". Wll i have to upgrade my headlights to put any kind angel eyes in?

I was pretty sure that you would have to convert the whole headlight assembley to have angel eyes. I know of one kit online that comes with everything you need to have angel eyes. go to www.bavauto.com and enter your car series and year and then look up angel eyes. i belive they may cost like $500 for the whole kit, that includes both headlights. not to bad of a price.

The only possibly way to remove the glass off your stock headlights is by heating the glue and then removing the glass and installing the angel eyes. Most people put it in their oven until the glue heats up. If you ask me it is too much trouble, just buy yourself a set of euro ellipsoids. They can be purchased off ebay for about $160 dollars with angel eyes already installed in them.

You're right, except that on the US spec headlights, the lenses are plastic.

not that difficult to open up the headlights after heating them up in the oven. Just be careful to not force the glue or you might crack the lense
