    angel Eyes and other lighting q's

    I was wondering what angel eyes you guys would recomend with blue rings and I'd also like the HID "Look" fog lights and head lights. basically some thing that looks similar to the lighting kit Dado has on his 95M3 on the mischief Invasion video.

    I did a search but there were so many results, and didn't seem to have the answer to my question.

    Also I checked out Umnitza but there are so many options I don't know what fits the description of what I am looking for

    For the angel eyes, buy DDE Lightning enhanced or plus, and for the "HID look" bulbs either go for Vizu bulbs (which you can find @ Umnitza) or PIAA plasma spark blue bulbs...PIAA's are expensive though, but mine have lasted over a year, which is pretty good for rice bulbs. BTW, i'm running DDE lightning plus on my bmw, check out my webpage for more pics (link under sig)

    the DDE Lightning enhanced or plus, is that just the angel eyes or the new headlights too. because I heard US headlights can not be opened to install angel eyes

    Tropical Bimmer: Thanks for the compliment! They are DDE Lightning Plus


    97Calypso328I: DDE's are just the angel eyes...You need to buy the Euro Ellipsoid headlights to install them since they can be opened.

    From what I’ve heard, Depo's are alright, some fogging/moisture issues occur occasionally though on some units. Higher end manufacturers such as ZKW, Bosch apparently don’t have these probs. If you've got the money, I'd recommend ZKWs, but Depos will do the job as well. You can do a search if you want more info on the different kinds of lights out there; there are plenty of threads on Bimmerforums covering this topic. Here is a pretty good tutorial on ellipsoids:
