Use Xenon Lights E90 with Halagen Bulbs? Possible?

JRINNS · 06-20-2008, 06:21 AM

Hi guys,

I can purchase some Xenon lights off a 335 pretty cheap. However the install to convert my non angel halagens to Xenon looks complicated and expensive.

Can I get these lights and swap them out basically using the angels eyes and halagen bulbs instead of converting everything to Xenon.

any advice would be appreciated before I buy them

I have had a look at a parts databse but it dosn't mention if the headlight cases are a different part code. If its the same casing then maybe I can add my old halagen unit to the new headlight case. add a angel eye bulb and bingo.

Somehow I dont think it will be this simple

you need a xenon conversion kit!. Xenon units with halogen bulbs hahaha

The idea was to use the Xenon Light housing (Minus the Xenon ballast) with halogen bulbs. The purpose was to get the projectors not HID, Dont flame me dick as I dont have the light unit to analyse and was only asking a question.
