ALERT: Hella Xenon headlamps for just $295 & $330
Saw this on Bforum. You will NEVER, EVER find a better deal than this on Amazon. Although the picture is with the clear turn signal, it is sold with the amber turn signal. And I believe they come with ballast & bulb. Still four left. MOVE FAST!!!!

And I assume these ones are not self-leveling.... Still a steal, tho.

Ballast not included. http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...63&fg=05&hl=69
Add $269: http://www.amazon.com/HELLA-W0133-18...MW+63128387114 Still a pretty good deal, if these are real Hellas.

The Amazon website shows that these won't fit prefacelift e39.
Is it b/c these Hellas need the leveling sensors to aim properly? So the big question for me is.... Will these facelift Hella HID headlights work on a prefacelift e39? Someone please answer this for me...i've got the itch to buy something expensive tonight....

The real problem is that, over the years, the connectors have changed. A given headlight will not "plug and play" w/o butchering the cable assembly.
And, there's really no way to predict this. You must have the new headlights on the bench to compare connectors. All these vendors are purposely vague about these points.
