E92 Headlamps broken!

Hey everyone, turns out my headlamps are aiming too high and cannot be adjusted because a piece is broken in both headlamps.

Does anyone know where I can find or selling E92 Headlamps?! the dealership wants $3600! Thanks for any help!!

Shouldn't it be covered under warranty or have you in some way modified them?

My car is an off lease, from the US...unfortunately the car fax was not as accurate as i hoped. The car had been in a previous fender bender...which broke the motion assembly in the headlamps, therefore not covered by the warranty anymore. Albeit there are NO scratches on the headlamp!! I don't understand... also, no fault codes were present when the dealer scanned the vehicle.

I'm in the process of taking it up with BMW financial NY, where the car was bought from...regardless, i need to replace the headlamps. THank you very much for viewing and trying to help.

If anyone does come across a contact or a vendor who deals with OEM E92 headlamps other than the dealer I'd greatly appreciate the help. Thanks again.

There is a control arm the self levels when you turn the lights on, they won't throw any codes I don't think...

hmm..its probably going to be a PITB project to get warranty on those lights from the US dealer where you bought it from. most likely your best bet (cheapest anyways).
