Halogen to Xenon converison
I have a 2007 X3 M Sport Package and love it. I would like to convert the halogens to Xenon to complete the "package." My thoughts are that I would by OEM Xenon headlamps, ballasts and everything I need. Is the E83 Angel Eye compatible?
Does anyone have experience with such a conversion? Idea of cost and complexity to install? |

Not so much experience but depending on local regulations you may need to factor in the headlight washers in the bumper bar as well. Mandatory where I am.

First try upgrading to these bulbs. They are so much brighter than stock and might satisfy your craving for brighter lights.

With reference to the Osram 65w bulbs - do they get so hot that they burn out the headlight wiring harness near the headlamp connection? I had increased wattage bulbs in a Land Rover Freelander (Freeloader) and they burned out - actually melted - the headlamp connectors. They sell increased capacity connectors and was wondering if they are needed with the Osram's.
Thanks and have a good night. John |
