not exactly m8...my friend has put those lights (which are made by the same guys) on an A4 ... the leds are great...but he blinds badly...from every angle...he turned them as far down to the ground as he could...u can find lights as those for around $100 also on Ebay if not cheaper...

Cheers, $100,cheap as that?..mine have started to "condense" on the inside so with the rear tails playing up constantly its time to "pimp" my lights.

Reccomend any front/rear?

I would reccomend to get the X5 headlight preferably from an 01 model so are easy to open since in 02 bmw has changed the glue and are very hard to open...clear the yellow out and 'slap' some angel eyes on them and they would look much better than the ones on ebay...at least u would have more quality in my opinion...

As for the rears depending on what u are into...again plenty of choices ... clear/smoked/LEDs can't go wrong if u get what u like

i got mine for $680 total shipped with the HID system installed. sshhhh! here is the link:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...198466785&rd=1

and i tell you, the shroud doesnt look as bad in person as many members are bothered with the design. The projectors are nice in every detail, looks very OEM. I will install them tomorrow and post some pics.

EDIT: CONSIDERING YOUR NOT LOCAL, THAT EXPLAINS THE HIGH COST OF SHIPPING. THE BOX IS PRETTY BIG!

Thanks for the heads up

Worth the extra for HID?

Their shipping to UK is reasonable too........

So if you don't want the HID's its as advertised for $399 plus shipping right? And that includes AE's? On jlevi and umnitza they won't let you deselect the AE option. Meaning it adds an extra $170 or so. So the actual price to order these (not including HID at all) is like $578 on their site..
