E90 - Pre LCI Headlight Suggestion please

Hi

I have a Pre LCI 320D currently running on halogens without angel eyes, I am not really happy with them and am looking to upgrade, a friend of mine emailed a link, I just want to know if these lights are

- Road Legal (do the headlights need any adjustments to make it RHD ?, item being shipped from the US)
- Would any sort of coding be required or would this be a direct plug and play
- The description says the headlights will use existing main beam bulbs ? will it work with my current setup (no angel eyes) or do I need to find new bulbs ?

The headlights are competitvely priced, here's the link

Smoke - 187+shipping

Black - 162+shipping

Thanks for looking

Cheers

You should check with the vendors as most of them are LHD if the seller is from USA / Europe.
Try your luck with Ebay UK to get RHD.
You will require the motor of your OEM headlights.

Some of them may give you error codes if halo rings are not canbus error free.

If your looking for a cheap way, buy a set on hal projectors with hal rings & just upgrade the bulbs once fitted, i thought about this before getting a set from the US, have to say i haven't seen better headlights on anything yet

I have a set of those, don't bother. Angle eyes are useless.

Angle eyes? They sound useless! Well, unless you mean adaptive headlights?
