OSS Angel eyes

So I'm really interested in maybe upgrading my lci e90 335i from the yellow angel eyes to the OSS white led angel eyes. However, it requires uninstalling the headlight unit and sending it to OSS to have them add on the led AEs. I have never installed or uninstalled the headlight on this car before and was wondering if anyone know of a place that can remove it and then install it back on for me when I get the lights shipped back from OSS? I heard lux h8 was easier alternative but not as close to the OEM led white angel eyes found on the new e92.

I would just read around forums and look for places, since I'm not from WA, hopefully someone local helps you out.

I'm going the OSS route too and I don't even have halos on mine and they can do it for me. But I'm waiting on the multi color halos with white, until they get that ready in a month or 2, that's when I'll be sending mine!

Luckily I've found a shop that has installed OSS's before but not with the multi color halos yet, will be fun to see how it goes.

Yeah, thanks for the offer though. Not sure how different the headlights are between the e92 and lci e90.

Just different mounting point for the angel eye ring i think. U can also DIY and should takes about 2-3 hr to take off the bumper and headlight. Problem with shop is that u either drive home without headlight and bumper or leave the car in the shop weeks.

Any thoughts on how the lux h8 v3 looks? I may just go this route since it's plug and play.

The headlights are DIYable. Otherwise, the easy alternative is to buy a set of used headlights on FleaBay and send them off to OSS. I did mine that way by sending off my own set of headlights to OSS and then using the FleaBay as a backup.

Did you have a shop uninstalled the headlights and then reinstalled the oss headlights when you received them or did you do this yourself? If you used a shop, please let me know which one. I have a spare car to use so not having headlights on me e90 for a week or so is no problem.
