the extra wires hanging are for the auto-leveling/adaptive motor which is not included on the headlight...(this is for future upgrade). just use zip ties or leave them alone (dangling)...

E90 ANdy · 02-11-2008, 05:25 PM

i wonder if it comes with an HID kit.. or do you have to buy it separate. if its separate. theres still a chance for errors

jetblk328i · 02-11-2008, 08:57 PM

im 99.9% sure these arent hids.

scandluz22 · 02-11-2008, 09:18 PM

I'm interested. If they aren't HIDs(which I don't think they are) I would just get those xenix bulbs from Jlevi.

jetblk328i · 02-11-2008, 09:25 PM

yea...that would be a real nice combo....i like the black housing better than the chrome one...what do you guys think?

The chrome is more expensive but for some reason I like the black one too. The rings on the black looks floating whereas it look fixed on the chrome.

scandluz22 · 02-11-2008, 09:34 PM

Yea the black looks more OEM. The chrome is too Blingy....If thats a word

jb325i · 02-12-2008, 04:05 PM

I think the black housing looks much better than the chrome. How long do those xenix bulbs last anyways? I heard some only last a few months.

EHbavarian · 02-12-2008, 04:09 PM

i have xenix.... so far good.. been about 2 months no problems..

jb325i · 02-13-2008, 01:27 PM

I had some bulbs on an old landrover discovery that my parents used to drive. They were very bright and clear white, but they only lasted 3 months. I was thinking of getting bulbs for the 3, but want to get something that will not only look good, but last longer. I guess I'll check out the xenix.

It is fairly easy to install right?

jetblk328i · 02-13-2008, 02:11 PM

yea the xenix is just like replacing your oem bulb with another, same wattage, so no wiring.

SV Concepts III · 02-13-2008, 03:26 PM

Xenix is a direct replacement bulb so no wiring needed.

The problem you will run into with the ebay projectors is that they use a halogen light source for the angel eyes. This works and is of OEM color but will not be anywhere near as bright as the Predator angel eyes we install.

Cerezo · 02-13-2008, 03:39 PM

xenix is 80w, at least the one i received.

jetblk328i · 02-14-2008, 05:20 PM

u sure thats not the output?

Cerezo · 02-14-2008, 05:43 PM

99% sure. when i received it that was the first thing i noticed. that's what it says behind the bulb (12v/80w), not the container. there hasn't been any problem but i am replacing them when i get the new orasms because i don't feel comfortable with it, and the fact that the output isn't to my satisfaction.

jetblk328i · 02-14-2008, 08:14 PM

are you getting osram night breakers?

Cerezo · 02-14-2008, 08:19 PM

yeah. read some reviews on other ones and decided to go with the NB.
