    and just another set of headlights that are going to blind the shit out of everyone in oncoming traffic.....seriously I don't care how much you can see with those its the person in the other lane that cant see shit that just caused a head on collision

    I have to stay off highways at night because I cant see anything in these low e30s that are somehow always right where peoples headlights are pointed(and pitted windshield)

    Once this is standard on cars nighttime collisions are probably going to go way down if the beam spreads out into the woods

    Poly is a lot cheaper than glass. And is easier to make complex shapes. If you want a simple round headlight then glass is pretty easy.

    Also safer in a collision, right? No glass shards on the road surface.

    Exactly why I drive an e34

    €14/pr for 9006's when they blow out. It's a great gimmick, the people who buy these things will be trading up for the next new model in 2-3yrs(or whenever the warranty ends) anyway. They'll never really have to deal with any issue$.

    Exactly why when my xenon headlights on my e39 needed replacing, I went with Depo

    Will these fit my Depos with HIDs? Does it matter if my ballasts are wired up?

    Progress or Not? I wonder what a repair would be on one of these things?
