Ok so right now I have bmw e90 regular halogen with the amber ugly headlight I was thinking of changing them for some eBay aftermarket ones but have heard really bad things so now I seen some from Germany oem valeo euro style however the seller said for driving on the Right hand of the road so does that mean it won't fit American models? Don't quiet get it can somebody help thank you

You'll be fine with euro valeo halogens, if you were going with the xenon set up you'll be ok too but I don't know about wiring and coding if there needs to be any or just straight plug and play. Also look at ebay UK, ebay germany every once in a while, you'll see a set for $100 and pay additional shipping.

Using DEPO brand headlights are at your risk though. Always go with oem, I suffered lots of money last year to learn that lesson.

You can change them from rhd but get Lci halogens for a little more and you can get angel eyes

@bmw... I was thinking of lci they look really cool,but money wise they are expensive I live close to a lot of wrecking yards I might get lucky and for angel eyes which brand would you guys reccomend?

I have aftermarket projector headlights with HID on my 325, pain in the ass randomly misfires, they are good for a while then start misfiring. No shop could figure it out and some wont even touch it.

Had I know I would have really stuck with OEM halogen
