Is this for FL 3-series? 4-dr or 2-dr?

Is there a difference?
It's for the Z4.

OK. Thanks.
How much is it usually for the E46 coupe then?

Tanzy,.whether you are comparing prices or not, I think spending 4k on xenon is just not worth it IMO. But it's ur call dude.

You can buy it used on E46fanatics and shipped it via vpostusa.
The other alternative is Projecter46 headlights.

Is there a cheaper HID alternative for FL E46 coupes?

 

[jaskin]

There's a brand called depo that makes replicas of the Bosch Xenons Projector headlights. You might want to check them out. If you don't mind not having Angel eyes you can opt to wait for a used model to come up on e46. It's way cheaper than buying it new.

I wasn't looking for xenons, it's just that there was one up for sale at PML and I happen to have the right car so they asked if I wanted a set.

Dun tink U can buy xenon headlights from States cos they're for LHD cars!! Our RHD cars will beam towards the left cos our signs are on the left side, if U get the LHD xenons, U'll be beaming towards the right & blind the opposite side drivers!!

Hahahaha, siao liao!!

ETK part numbers shows different part numbers(Bi-Xenons) for RHD & LHD cars!!

Here's a example for a 2002 E46 325 sedan...

LHD 325i is 63 12 6 910 969 (L)
63 12 6 910 970 (R)

RHD 325i is 63 12 6 910 973 (L)
63 12 6 910 974 (R)

So go check your part numbers for the xenons U got from States!!!

Cheers!!

No lah I got the projector46s lah. I'm thinking maybe I can take off the front clear glass and shift it manually.

u mean the xenons are used?

Hi dude,

You can not shift the light patterm from LHD to RHD......unless you totally wish to remove the 'sign' board projection advantage.

Changing the 'flip' internal is hell lot of trouble.

If possible, better change to the correct one.

Good luck.
