My 2006 325i came with halogens. I got a kit from ebay for $300. I wish I would have taken pictures for a DIY. Here are some tips

Seller i got it from "auto-perfect"

I remember having to figure out which cable was ground in the headlight wire housing.

In order to fit any HID bulbs, you have to remove the reflector.. Its really blinding. The reflector is held by a clip, extremely easy to remove.

There is no error, when i turn on the car with the lights off.

I get a warning about the lights for a second when the car is turned on with the lights on (lights on automatic) then it goes away. Really does not bother me.

Wish I could tell you more, that's all I remember.
