Congrats on the child. Like Alpine_M5 I am also considering these for an e30 M3 and would like to leave the wiring stock if possible.

In the meantime I went ahead and ordered some Hella Ellipsoids (haven't heard good things about the DEPO's). How are you mounting the Mini H1? With Squared mounting brackets? I want to do something similar, but with the Mini D2S as they seem to have a far better bulb selection (Philips, Osram, etc.). Care to shed any light (pun intended)?Last edited by hankolerd; 01-14-2015, 09:36 PM.

What negative aspect are you hearing? The adjusters work well. They fit nicely. They look spectacular. Never had a problem.
Let me know. I'd be willing to try. I thought the D2S one was bigger and it's already a tight fit.
Couple sets sent out :)

The things I have heard and read the most is around moisture entering the housings. I know they have gone through a few revisions though, so maybe that issue have been resolved? I have read a few reports of people having trouble with the adjusters and overall quality of the plastic, but that is a common problem on the OEM lights as well
This video shows a side-by-side comparison of the H1 and D2S housings, you can see the D2S does have a little bit bigger mount, but looks to be the same size of projector and same length - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dxHREK6aPnY
And this photo shows a comparison of the H1 and D2S, which is part of the reason I am considering the D2S, that is why I was asking if you care to describe your mounting process.

Installed these set for one of my loyal customers with the bi-xenon and LED high beam kit.
Its insanely bright. My customer has had them for a few months with no issues.
I have the smoked depos with HID kit on my car and havealso had no problems.
Usually I see moisture issues on low beams when someone does a poop job of installing the HID kit and doesn't properly seal them back up.
