No Angel Eyes

JXYOO · 10-25-2008, 03:14 AM

So I don't have angel eyes but I want them do I need to buy a whole new headlight or can you just add them on?

simp0man · 10-25-2008, 02:08 PM

Whole new headlight. Cheaper if you had BMW do it in the first place.

they come with xenon lights option. you can retro fit the xenons if you like.

bsamoul · 10-25-2008, 02:21 PM

If you have the halogens, you have to get a xenon converter kit. It's really expensive, so if you are willing to spend lot of money on angels, go for it man, but I don't think it's worth it.

should have never bought any bmw (or mb/audi/lexus) without xenon HIDs.. It cost 2x as much if you were to install it afterwards and it'll probably not look as good anyway.

just me, I guess

Do everyone who gets angel eyes installed have error messages?

May be able to fit 2009 angel eyes on your car. I'm waiting to see if this is possible. I think this would be a better solution as long as it's plug and play. It wouldn't be xenon but still have the look.

Yea, you might as well get the '09 non-xenon headlights. I think they will be plug and play (could be wrong). That way you get clear corners and angel eyes.

No halogens come standard don't they?

Suthrn · 10-26-2008, 07:25 AM

In the us halogens are standard are the 328i.

Think carefully. I just had one go out. Dealer had to remove the front bumper just to change the angle eyes. Waiting for the second one so they can do it again. No wonder on one wants to own one of these after warranty.

Also my headlights no longer turn after service.
