There is a member on here who has them. He likes them and has had no problems.

I personally do not like the chrome. I would get these:

I think the chrome on headlights is cheesy... but what do I know?

How much? and are these cheap imitation knockoffs that are typically sold on Fleabay that break or wear out after 6 months...

I recall WhiteWhip having them.

the housing is way too reflective for what it's trying to do...(show off the angel eyes)

I do enjoy the color and brightness of the AEs though. But other than that it just shouts eBay to me.

Not feeling the chrome. The light enclosure for the high beam is also too small and has too much gap. For the money, I would look for OEM Xenon Headlights and do a retrofit. The more OEM you go the better your bimmer looks.IMO

Totally with 'george1202' comments above - very tacky looking if you ask me.

I have a set of 03 OEM non Xenon housings for anyone who is looking for a set to mod or use for parts. PM me if interested.
