E83 xenon upgrade , Hella

I scoured the Internet only to find ironically that one of the site sponsors has an upgrade kit from the Oem Halogen headlight housing with Angel eyes. I'm waiting for a reply to confirm this is plug and play, and no additional parts or programming is needed.

Thought I'd share this. Save somebody 4 hours of searching

I would love to find a set with the super bright LED angel eyes like on the new models. The search continues

I'm a huge fan of Xenons...but tell me really, who pays ~$1500 to convert from Halogen to Xenon? That is a huge chunk of change for new projectors, bulbs, and balasts.

I got a hold of the sponsor on FB. The price is just for the housing and wiring. So Balasts and bulls are still needed. And I double checked, reprogram of the ECU to enable 'Xenon' in the feature needs to be enabled..

I'm thinkin about it. :P cheaper then oem. Which is about 3k
