looks like it...kinda worry its like those CCFLs where the inner ring is smaller than the high beam and looks awkard. Any issues in getting a diameter measurement from the supplier?

I prefer the socket of the yellow bulb on the picture to be disconnect then the out look maybe better.

For those who installed recently just keep a try and see the out come.:top::top::top:

 

[Alex5522]

Yes I think it does. see picture below.

This was the picture which i actually wan to post ( imagine without the yellow bulb inside ):top::top::top:

After 1 week, I DIY on the lens cleaning just to make sure they are crystal clear. Some of the pics:-

Wiped the projector len with a damp cloth

Cleaned these lens with a damp cloth

Cleaned the inside surface of the glass cover too

After the cleaning

Another shot

Only the angel eyes are switch on - without camera flash

With camera flash

I also took this opportunity to adjust both my headlights height to make them equal

By the way, any idea where this piece of rubber should stick to? Is it on the radiator cover?

 

[jarance]

yes russie, it suppose to sit on the radiator. see yellow circle.

Jarance, I'm not sure about the flickering angel status as was unable to catch up since the installation.

Saw that in russie's picture as well, mcfir7 doesn't have to do that since the internal lenses are not used. So the rings were put in place of the lens.

don't have to remind me that LOL :motz:

 

[Russie]

Anyone on E36 tried removing the internal lenses? What difference does it make? Any better in terms of beam pattern, so forth? Was tempted to remove the lens yesterday but finally decided to have them on
