e46 projector headlights & HIDs

[666bxg]

Hi I was wondering if anyone has upgraded their E46 headlights and upgraded to HIDs? I recently did this as a DIY project and am very happy with the result. The projectors come with angel eyes (OEM LED style) which is a nice bonus. I also slipped in a HID kit and the light beam is well focussed and does not glare other people Below are some pics I'd like to share

i got it from germany and costs about RM1100 for the headlights. I happen to be there. Then I got a cheapo HID kit for RM400

Bear in mind the lights are made by depo, produced in Taiwan and you could get it from Taiwan or here in Malaysia as well. Make sure you get ones that are adapted to RHD traffic. The depo ones have a switch to change between RHD and LHD traffic
