No Angle Eye Halos on base 128i?

BMWfan69 · 07-04-2010, 08:54 AM

So, I just picked up my 2011 128i on Friday. I was surprised to see that the headlights don't have the cool lighted halos around the headlights like my 528 and 328.

I could have sworn that they were on the car I test drove. Are these an option on the 128? If so, that's kind of lame. Can they be added as a dealer or personal install?

They only come on Bimmers with xenon headlights. The 128 comes stock with halogen lights. You can buy aftermarket headlights that have the rings built in. Some of the sponsors on this forum sell them.

Thanks. My 5 series has xenon, but my 3 series does not and it still has the halos. I guess it's a 1 thing. Thanks for the link I'll check it out.

If you have halogens, then there are no angel eyes on these headlights. You can replace the headlights with a set of Projector82s to get the projector look with angel eyes.
