BMW E46 OEM-style bi-xenon projectors

[Sugars*]

We have stock of the OEM bi-xenon projectors for BMW E46. R1,300 a set. CANBUS ballasts are sold separately - they are R800 a pair.

All items supplied come with a 1year warranty.

We also provide installation services at an additional charge.

We also carry stock of the CCFL or LED type angel eyes to match the setup. There's also various other style projectors for all vehicles should you be wanting a custom look, rather than OEM.

Not badly priced for those who can't afford the OEM stuff. Those are not OEM though so what make are they? Depo? TYC?

its not a complete headlight that we are selling. the projectors are sold separately which we install into compatible headlights, as in this case, specifically for the E46 model headlight.

Oh ok, thought it was entire headlights. Pics of the projectors on their own then?

So I assume the bright beam will not be needed as this is bi-xenon or am I misunderstanding?

Pretty keen on doing this provided one cannot see any wires or boxes when opening the hood. Any pics of the install behind the actual headlight?

technically, yes, high beams are not needed after using a bi-xenon projector, but due to the vehicle will be throwing an error if you do not connect a bulb to it, makes it not an option. Some vehicles do have bi-xenon plus a halogen high beam.

there are wires and boxes at the back of the headlights, but we use cloth tape to keep the OEM look retained. there will be ballast or inverter boxes for CCFL which can be seen. they cannot be tucked away as they are only a certain length and cannot be extended.

I haven't heard of 55w that's a 'masked' 35w. Can't speak about the guys whom you had tried sourcing this from.

Rather PM me to keep this topic separate, but yes, I do have 55w kits as well.

thank you,

What is the total cost to upgrade from standard halogen headlights to these (Not including installation) ?

Is it R2100 (R1300 + R800) per side?

From my understanding it's R2100 for both sides

That is rather attractive. What can be expected of the installation procedure?
Is it a fairly easy DIY, or is their significant modification/s required for fitment?

Here's a picture of the kit, for someone that had asked;

it is DIY.... but then again it comes down to if you have the tools and patience. it takes us about 3hrs to do it properly.

Please do not try and install 55w kits in these projectors as the plastic parts will melt. I say this from first hand experience.

Is installation free? I was keen until I read that it takes you guys 3 hours to do it. That means about 9 hours for me.

That's exactly the layman time it would take... by the time you have beers... eat... take some calls, check fb :rollsmile:

There is a DIY to install these on the forum. Just have a look at the e46 DIY thread or under my threads
