Finally starting the next project for my car. Getting rid of the aftermarket Depo V2 headlights and moving to genuine BMW Xenons. I got the Depos for an amazing price with the full HID kit so I can't complain too much, but the quality is definitely not up to par. I've had to re-clearcoat one headlight, both the back side tabs were broken so they're just hanging open. Which is totally fine, since one of them (maybe both?) gets condensation on the inside after a rain or wash. The projectors are eh quality and the angel eyes aren't very bright.

Got my hands on an E87 clear corner non-adaptive xenon! Only 1 has shown up now, but I should have more coming. Luckily all E81, E82, E87, and E88 headlights are the same besides options.

Interestingly has only 1 projector with a halogen for a highbeam? Although RealOEM still lists it as a bi-xenon. Hopefully someone can chime in on this.
