I was told those kind of headlights were required to do so... Is that true, if not, what is needed, and what kind of cost am I looking at? thanks | | | 06-10-2003, 08:56 PM | #2 | Junior Member Join Date: Jun 2003 Posts: 2 | hi!

The ones at turner are made by Hella and I believe the BavAuto are Inpro. | | | 06-15-2003, 09:40 PM | #7 | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Tucson, AZ Posts: 290 | hey BMPD has the angel eye kit with the euro headlights for $469.95.

The Bekkers kit is original hella, and it's all plug and play. The BavAuto one makes no such promises, and for the extra money i'd rather get something that works with factory reliability and plugs right in. __________________ 1996 Hellrot 318ti - RIP | | | 06-17-2003, 12:15 AM | #12 | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Tucson, AZ Posts: 290 | i believe the euro lights in BMPD are authentic BMW. i guess the "halo" is fitted to the origional light seperatly because i dont think any e36 came with those even in europe. you CAN get a reproduction euro light from BMPD and they claim it is comparable to the authentic light in quality. and they are about 100 bucks cheaper. but thats up to you. when my time comes i'll get the reproductions __________________ Vince Carknard 1995 318ti Active Hellrot, 16" 5 spoke, "Fogged" airbox mod, Stromung exhaust, Bilstein Sports, BMW sport springs, 3.73lsd, others... | | | 06-17-2003, 01:20 PM | #13 | Junior Member Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Sofia,Bulgaria Posts: 9 | | | | 06-18-2003, 09:49 AM | #14 | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Panama City, Panama Posts: 122 | again, why I'd go for the Hella kit.. 1) It's Hella dude, like, Hella Cool (ok, i know that was bad, but I HAD to). 2) They're Hella, like in high german quality. 3) They come with a wiring harness that takes either Euro or US, no cutting plugs or any of that crap. 4) Reliability. A friend of mine got the "make it yourself-everything is included kit" and it worked great, for like a month. After that the quality went degrading little by little until it pooped out. Worse of all, the way the rings are installed didn't let the hi-beam bulbs go in all the way, so they were always crooked. That's why when I have the money for it, I'm gonna spend the extra bucks for the quality and save myself a loooota time __________________ 1996 Hellrot 318ti - RIP | | | 07-23-2003, 09:47 PM | #15 | Member Join Date: Jul 2003 Location: Omaha, NE Posts: 38 | Tell ya what, do what I did. Go to www.procarparts.com They have the angel eyes on there. I bought mine about 3 months ago and they only cost me $230.00 They are great, I love them, easy to install and have had no problems. They are the projector lights with the angel eyes, so they aren't some cheapy thing. They work just as good, and look just as good as any $1500 set. Trust me on this, that site is pretty cool, and pretty cheap as far as after market stuff. I just ordered a set of fog lamps for my car yesterday actually from there. $60 for both lights and the whole assembly? Wires and everything, not too bad if I do say so myself... Check it out though if you want those lights cheap, but not a rip off... | | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
