Aftermarket Headlights For E92

Hello everyone, I've recently visited the dealer with headlight issues. I currently have the xenon lights on my 2007 e92 and to make a long story short, I need an entire headlight replaced. The dealer quoted me 2100 for a full SINGLE headlight. I searched for parts but only found the 180's for 3k. If you guys have any input on some good aftermarket headlights for the E92, it'd be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

None exist (or better worded, none exist that are worth buying. I've never heard/seen of such a thing advertised before, probably because E92/93's come stock with Xenons)

2100 is total bullshit. I'm looking on Tischer BMW's part resource list, and I'm seeing the price per headlight as less than half of that (source list: http://www.trademotion.com/partlocat...layCatalogid=0) You will need an adaptive headlight corresponding to whatever side you are getting replaced.

You should contact Tischer through this form, explain your situation with as much useful detail as possible (E92, 2007, Xenon, Adaptive)
http://getbmwparts.com/contact_form.html and they'll tell you which of the headlights on that list to buy. I don't know what's wrong with your headlight, but this likely won't include any bulbs/ballasts, so you'll need to order those seperately/transfer them from your old headlight.

the dealer went on to tell me the stepper motor as well bad and another key part was not receiving power. im unsure as to what that part is, as the form does not state. When ordering these parts from tischer, will they come with these parts?

After receiving the paperwork from the dealer, they suggested that i needed a new stepper motor, a new igniter, and a new assembly altogether. If i were to ebay a part or look for a whole headlight, would these necessarily come with the headlight?

I have a brand new stepper motor that I purchased from Tischer, that I did not need. If you are interested? I will sell to you.
