please don't attack me for this guys, I know a variant of this question has probably been asked at least a hundred times here, but I did a search and I promise I looked through at least 7 pages and couldn't find anything conclusive. my car doesn't have the premium or xenon packages and the yellow headlights have been driving me crazy since the initial novelty of the whole car wore off about 2 months after I got it...

I've asked people at garages and none of them were sure if they could put xenon headlights in my car and have them work. I spoke to the dealership and the only thing they told me was that I could replace the entire headlights and retro-fit the stock halos on for the bargain price of about $3,000 with labor. but I just want blue headlights... and I don't wanna have to resort to the fake blue-tinted ones=(

so... there's this kit on eBay, and the description is so freaking vague, and I e-mailed the seller and he had no idea what he was talking about, so I'm stumped.

do you guys know if this will allow me to install xenons on my car? or do I even need this kit? just putting xenon bulbs in it won't do work... right? it's a 2006 325i if I haven't already mentioned that btw=)

thanks a ton in advance.

ya you can put tht mtec kit into your halogen headlights, but it might look a bit strange. the reflectors arent really deisgned for the HID bulbs so your beam pattern might be a bit off.

it will work, but i cant say how it will look.

it'll look like u've got blue headlights - which is what he wants
but the light beam will probably be stuffed up because the halogen reflectors aren't deesigned for HID lights and u'll probably blind everyone and his dog in front of u

would need to get the euro xenons first
a little different and more costly than getting a kit from ebay
