Rolling Gears headlights

So got these in the other day. Will be adding an hid kit and install the headlights with a friend over the weekend. Look pretty damn good so far for $460 shipped!

Stay tuned

What year is your car? Would you install them as is and give us some pics and a review, before you start the HID conversion?

My car is an 07. Probably won't be able to install and take pics then do the HID conversion. Really depends how my friend feels that day since I'm not too savvy with these things lol.

This is the exact link I bought them from. Seeing you have an e92 I don't beleive they make them for your car. They are pretty much the MARS headlights branded by a different company

Didn't get to put the HID's in yet. My boy wasn't sure how to get the wiring out with the dust cap at that moment.

Doubled the sealant before installing. My boy was messing with the drivers side projector adjuster... Is that why the output is like this?

The DTM rings are blinding. Me liiike! I can finally be behind someone on the road at night and they could say " oh shit, that's a Beemer" lol

These headlights def transformed the look of the car. One friend said it looks like it's a 2016 lmao. Other than the weak halogen bulbs in for the moment I am 100% satisfied. My boy that installed them has the bixenon headlights and he was impressed. These angel eyes are brighter also.

HID Kit installed pics soon

They look great and the AE are very bright. Do you have a pic from the front with both headlights installed? Are you installing a regular hid kit? Sorry for all the question but I'm really considering buying this headlights.

Oops. I meant we didn't get to put the HID's in yet.

I posted a pic of them from the front with the headlights I stalled

the output of the projector is horrible. They look nice and would be a perfect candidate for a retrofit with a proper projector.

You drill a hole and use a rubber grommet to seal it.

Headlights look good but your beams are definitely not leveled.
