stay away from the one piece headlights.
so you have two good options, depending on your price range
1 you can get depos
2 you can get zkw
if you want them to look really hot you'll need a set of hid/citylights/or angel eyes .
i chose to go with depos/6000k hid/thinlines i like it the way i have it

They are originally in front of both low and high beams. The headlights look much cleaner without them.

wow.. those look gorgeous.. :love1
How does this work.. do your high beams still work like normal? I really really like those, would like to get those too.
princess20ny 09-06-2007, 12:31 PM O yeah, and would something like this fit on an e46?

get depo and remove the small lens(4), keep in mind that angel eyes are then out if you were planning on installing some, you will have to put the lenses back.

City lights look really nice and cost close to none after the headlights. To answer your question, the city light is a small bulb under the high beam bulb so your highbeams aren't affected.

I will have to try some things out, have been thinking of angel eyes too. I really am in love with those ^ though, but I don't know if they look so good because the baby is red and it matches sooo well, mine is black so I dunno if it would have the same "I'm so in luv" affect... :az maybe i'll do a photoshop and try it out that way lol..

keep in mind it also has a certain effect on the light output, the lens is an intrical part of the optical system so the pattern may not be as good.

you can buy lots of things cheap, but it has a funny way of costing a lot more in the end. buy right rather then cheap, isn't that the reason we all bought BMW's rather then Yugo's?

They are originally in front of both low and high beams. The headlights look much cleaner without them.
Now I'm confused, I thought that the glass that Depo's come with have small lines and markings on them. Those look completely clean. Are you saying that you swapped the exterior glass from your another set? Or did you remove the glass covers in front each individual light? Sorry for being slow, I haven't messed with the headlights yet, I still have my OEMs but am looking at all the options so I can buy a new pair.
EDIT: Lol, he posted that link before I could finish typing... he's psychic.
Rose City 09-06-2007, 08:08 PM ZKWs. It well worth the extra money. The projection pattern is far better than Depos.
