I prefer euros. But I thought they were more expensive and needed to be ordered from germany.

Couple days ago I had same dilemma. Couldn't decide between pre-lci euro xenons or lci xenons. I own pre lci E90. The difference in price was only a $100, so it wasn't about money. While lci xenons are absolutely awesome I went with pre lci euro xenons.

You probably asking yourself why??

I like OEM look with everything matching my car year. If I would choose to go with lci I would end up swapping lci hood, bumper, grille, trunk and taillights or just trading my car for lci model (which is not a cheap option).

As far as getting the euro headlight I ordered mine from Germany. I found a guy on the German ebay, talked to him and he agreed to send the headlights to me in US. The lights are in mint condition, they cost me $620 shipped. Keep it in mind that I also need to buy bulbs and ballasts. Add around $120 for bulbs and $250 for used ballasts, anyway i end up forking out $1000 for a complete euro xenon headlights, all OEM parts.

My vote for euros!!!
