For that money I'd rather go with OEM replacement for peace of mind. Just my 2cents.

Do they require the old ones?


There was a group in Oz that was flipping headlites - open them, mod them. Looked identical

Thank You for replies, I found seller on eBay, he sent me finally answer for questions for which sellers from Aliexpress were unable to send me clear answer.
So: headlight use H7 halogen bulb for low beam, and H1 halogen bulb for high beam. Headlights are not compatible with stock D1S HID bulbs and are not compatible with AFS function. For low beam I can use H7 HID kit and for high beam I can use H1 LED bulb, that´s all- simply and clear answer.

So where sellers from aliexpress are telling that this headlight is not compatible for car with stock D1S HID bulb, in fact this means only I need H7 HID kit instead of my stock D1S HID bulb.

Advantage of this is I can buy 55W HID kit so the light output will be much better
