My last car was a 98 civic, pushing 270kms, soI thought it was time for a upgrade.

I got a 1994 bmw 318i
I was looking on ebay at the halo projectors, and HID lights and all that stuff. I have some cash to spend, so what would you all think is the best to buy? My buddy got a xenon kit for his sx 2.0, and they are soo bright. Only spent like 80.

So should I get the , and then a HID kit?

There are much cheaper and way more reliable routes you can go with this...Those one piece headlights will be looked down upon on this forum, so dont expect any positive responses...Look into www.bavtoys.com and www.ddmtuning.com (check out the benjamin box) On both websites, there are package deals you can purchase which will I'm sure fit your budget and needs.

well, do you plan on ricing out your bmw(please dont)?
do1 here likes one piece headlights and ebay isnt really the best either. use one of the sponsors forumjp posted but DO NOT ASK WHO'S BETTER! you will only start a fight lol

their is nothing "wrong" with them, it just ruins the look of bmw's and they arent as good as European headlights

The depo on DDM doesnt come with the halo on it as well though. Its extra.

Whre as the one on ebay comes with the halo, and the projector.

When you order the halo with it, do the rings come seperatly or built in?

Has anyone tried ordering just the rings?(I need to check how the projectors are when I get car tmmrw)

So i ordered them, and it actually seems to good.
Projectors on ebay with halos are roughly 80-100. This, your getting projectors, halo's,and HID...Are the HID's just the bulbs, or is it a conversion kit as well?

It comes with the whole kit, its all plug and play..Fairly easy install if you follow the posted DIY articles. You will not be dissapointed, yes it seems to good to be true, but its not! These vendors have gone nuts:buttrock
