Good luck w/ the upgrades and although it will be nice to see all the parts on your X, I can't seem to agree w/ spending all that $$$ for the facelift mod.
Post some pics after you are done....

the lights only cost 430 us dollars
bumper, fenders,trims,hood 900 dollars
facelift alloys with diamaris tyres 900 dollars

wot r these for on bottom of lights/will i need new 1s if so where can i get them from and wot r they

The silver box with yellow labels look like the ballast packs. If you have xenon lights now then you should have a pair of these that will need to be wired into the new light plugs.

Yes they are the ballasts but I don't know if the wiring plug for the self leveling units are compatible with the plug on the facelift light.
Do the facelift lights have a lever to adjust between LHD/RHD?

Zulu95 03-07-2006 08:39 PM

The self leveling system will need to be rewired into the new plug. If you want to save yourself a complete new loom and/or you want to change back then open the self leveling on the old units and remove the 4 pin/wire mini loom to wire it into the new plug. It should have 4 blue wires and plugs directly into the stepper motor.
E-mail me if you need photo/more info.

where are you ordering all your facelift parts from? i checked w. crevier and bmw has raised the price on almost every single facelift piece

Will these lights fit in 2001 X5? If yes, could you please post the part number?
Thanks

Nope, it won't fit in your 2001 X5. Those headlights are for the facelift X5.
