Well from my experience the light output out of a projector + halogen bulbs is really poor, worse than with normal reflector type lights.

were you using the right bulb for the projector? because the light spread from the bulb into the unit is very important...

Yup

im not sure it will be worth it for me then :(

I am interested, but would like to ask you some questions first.

Is the light output of these any greater than the 55 watt halogen lamps fitted? The reports I have seen are a bit vague

What is the shipping cost to Cape Town?

Thanks

the light output is 35W and your wiring harness is designed for 55W so you are safe here.

overnight shipping to cape town is R80 for this box of goodies via speed services couriers.

thanks

 
Is there anything like this available for the E90 pre-LCI halogen housing? I know I'm taking a shot in the dark here as I've searched with no joy, but maybe, just maybe your answer will be yes.

sorry bud, there isn't. this is due to the fact that it is almost impossible to remove the lense to install anything inside. you will have to buy an aftermarket set with the projectors already installed inside. then you would still need a xenon HID kit.

Thank you for confirming my fears :cry:

Will get the HID kit from you hopefully next month.

Are these still available? was it the only set you had? and will it retrofit into an E36 headlight housing?

They should actually fit the e36 as well, and you can make them work with or without the shrouds. With the shrouds will give you a more modern look, and without will keep the OEM look.
