Halo's for e90 Sedan?

Sorry if this has been posted already

But does the 08 328xi sedan come stock with Halo's? Or is this only on the coupes? Thanks

Halos? You mean angel eyes...yes, the optional xenons have the angel eyes as a design element. However, they do not function as DRLs as in the E92s.

The 328i & xi sedans dont come standard with angel eyes/xenons, they are an option. AE/xenons are only standard on the coupes.

To clarify, I ordered my 328xi sedan with the optional xenons. So if I understand correctly they are purely cosmetic, and will not look like angel eyes at night as the coupe does?

If you got xenons with your car, then you should have angel eyes.

The sedan's angel eyes will not come on as DRL like they do on the coupe. You can put the light switch into parking mode and the angels will turn on but so will the turn signals.

You have a couple options:

1. Be happy with your amber halogen and live with it.
2. Purchase US OEM xenon headlights from the dealer (or from the members here on the forum) and do the retrofitting. There's a DIY on this in the DIY section.
3. Purchase the E90 Projectors from JLevi, which is a plug-and-play head lamps that incorporate the angel eyes in them.
4. Try to see if this is still available. http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=123722. If they are, then you got another plug-and-play option.
5. Trade in your car for a 335i (or better yet, a E92 M3), which will come with the xenon headlights as standard option.

Good luck!!!

i believe Xenon headlights with angel eyes come standard with the 328i which is the lowest model for the 328. That is as far as the 08 model goes, I don't know about the other previous models
