Euro E90 Headlights

Where is the cheapest place to buy the adaptive Euro headlights? My friend's looking to replace the ugly amber ones on his E90.

there are no "cheap" euros ... i don't think adhd can get them currently or anytime soon ... if you are looking for adaptive ones as well, thats pretty rare .. be prepared to spend over 1800

Bavauto has some. Just select "lighting"....then pick your car. For some reason I can't copy and paste the actual page you're looking for.

I wouldnt sell them unless you never plan to get your car inspected. The Euros are not DOT approved.

Ok, is this a pretty simple plug-and-play swap? Does it require removing the front bumper?

Yes and yes. It is plug-and-play but you also have to remove the front bumper. My E91 got the Euro headlights swap and my upcoming E90 will have it too. I also deleted the AHL feature from factory IOT make the Euro Xenon conversion cheaper.

I have a friend in Monterey, Mexico. Does anyone know if the BMW's there get Euro lights? If so, it might end up costing less overall instead of ordering them from Europe.

Is a clear corner worth $2k? Rather spend that money elsewhere.

After rims and maybe exhaust, clears would be my next "major" mod. They look so much better!
