    Elipsoid Headlights HELP

    I really want to pick up these Smiley Headlights for my 1990 325is. Will this work for my car? anyone have any input? Thanks in advance.



    Is the install easy (Plug and Play)?

      ok

      Do they have good quality ellipsoids at BMA Autoparts? do you know by any chance? The install should be pretty easy right?

        BMA can sell you need OEM ellipsoid assemblies, but you are going to spend ~$500 or so.

        Just buy some good used ones.

            Hella and Bosch are both OEM. You can buy either used but AFAIK Bosch hasn't been making new ellipsoids for a long time for our cars. New really your only choice is several variants of Hella, or some DEPO shit.
