    go to bimmerforums.com

    they have boat loads of people that sell prolumen HID kits. They are plug and play kits for our cars.

    personally I'd go to Don@Modbargains over on BF.C, cause he's my friend and I know he can get you a good deal.

          I only got the 5000k kit, and am in love. Simple install. Only trouble was where to mount ballasts and ignitors. Other than that, never happier.

                      Mine are to get here monday. My lights don't blind anyone now. The only car that i have that blinds people is my 96 firebird formula, the lights are regular lights and are adjusted correctly but people still flash me they are normal halagens that are just really brite. my bmw had sealed beams in it when i got it, that was like having a blind man on a fast horse at night, then i got the depo demon eyes witch was a much better improvment. But I really liked the look of the freedom fogs for the highs so i got a set of smileys off of e-bay for $85.00. They really look good! and i can see better with them then with the depo's..

                        Oh man, I love my smileys with the Prolumen HID's. I had to cough up some extra dough, since I needed new adjustment screws.

                        Go for it. One of the best investments I've made for my E30.

                            people with smileys, what did you do with the caps on the low beams? dremel through them and use the supplied plug? cut the wires in half and resolder to the inside of the cap and the wiring on the outside? or just leave the caps off? i want to do this the right way sooo?

                              I dremelled through and used the supplied rubber plug. worked like a charm, and neat install.
