Talking Help buying projector headlight

Hey Guys,
I'm thinking about converting my stock halogen headlights in time for summer to some angel eye headlights. After hours of reading i decided to go with these depos, please feel free to let me know if there are any newer models to this or any better headlights in 2014. I remember seeing a seller with the same headlights for less but this is all i can find now listed on ebay. do you guys know anywhere i can get these cheaper? Anyone have the v2 with these white 8k bulbs... feedback? Anyone knows a better headlight?

If I were you I would ask a lot of questions to confirm that the AEs are definitely V2s. I order a pair which showed the exact images in your link and I got V1s instead with the uneven light output. I recently ordered a pair from Umnitza and they are sweet and AEs are bright. The only thing with those is you have to purchase an additional wiring setup to use the AEs as DRLs instead of the standard H7 bulb. You can PM me if you have more questions.

I did halogen to projector on my 3 series. After market SUCKED for headlights. Condensation and weird turn signals not working, even with the correct coding. I ended up buying OEM projectors and it was worth EVERY CENT.
