The second ones you posted are no longer made.

You either need to retrofit your oem headlights or buy the Depos.

The Depos looks nice!

The headlights on the silver car are not made anymore if I remember correctly...they do look really good...the picture with the lights you posted is a no no in my opinion..
As far as AE go, umnitza sells good ones.you have to bake your headlight open though
I don't know anyone else though maybe other members will chime in in this

Tom you must own the factory then, because if they were made they would be available. The manufacturer themself told me on back order with no ETA of new stock.

Been meaning to give you a call on them but been buying other things for the X. I'll PM you though for now as if you have a set of the Spyders that are new stock I would be interested.

Anything can be opened if you have time and patience. As was shown above as the facelift lights aren't opened easily.

10/02 is the cutoff date for headlights able to be baked open.
