HiCan anyone advise me on doing an order from JLeviSW, i.e. how do you get the package cleared through SA customs and delivered to your door? Does the company offer this service? Any advice is much appreciated.
Thanks
Current: 2004 e46 318i (facelift) halogen stock lamps.

It all depends on which courier you use. Obviously JlevisW doesn't ship things they pay a courier company to do it.
Usually the courier company gets the items through customs and pays import tax and then releases the product to you when you pay them what they payed on tax and duties.
Personally I just use the post office since the package gets insured in any case. It takes longer than a overnight courier but its much much cheaper.
Hope this helps
I've never used these guys and cannot vouch for there service and integrity but they seem to offer the rings we want at a very good price in the CPT area.

jip and they use the perspex wand that you get on blinds. It does not look that good This is the Link http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=980547339061120203#Legacy said:
Big No No I have mad one and its easy but not that good:hammerhead:
two leds :thinking:i doubt you will see that in the day...
why did he not just use tin foil all the way it reflects better than that tape stuff he put on?
if i were doing this i would drill some extra holes in the sides (angled to face down the tube) where the heat shrink is to put a few more leds in even then the light output will be rubbish

Just out of curiosity - I'm not the smartest person when it comes to car talk, although my addiction to this forum is gradually making me more and more obsessed and passionate about BMW talk - but I'd like to know a guesstimate as to what it would cost to put angel eyes (I presume those are the 'rings') on a E90 3-series?
Do they just fit it on the normal lights? How does it work? I don't have the xenon's and I'm quite thankful I don't, but the rings do look awesome, would be nice if I could have those rings in.
I'm in the Jhb area...

Basically no, not possible to retrofit these into the halogen housing.
Either get xenon housings with the angel eyes built in from BMW (you're looking at R30k +), or get some aftermarket projector housing which aren't as good as OEM pieces, which have the angel eyes, but nowhere near the quality of look of OEM. These are called "depo" headlights, I've seen them for the 1 series, they'll probably have for the 3 series as well.
OR get some OEM 2nd hand xenon housings from a scrap yard and then fit a HID kit in them. Prob looking at R8-9k for that option.
I did hear something about some guys opening up the headlights to fit these things, but opening these up is usually a mission, and doesn't look great imo.
