Hi, wonder if anyone know if you could get a halogene headlight and mount the xenonparts from your moistured xenon headlight? Is the housing the same?
A new xenon light costs 1250$ in Sweden, a used one 630$ and a used halogene 280$. Itīs a huge difference and I was hoping to save some money.
I have a 2005-530i.

bi-xenon headlights and clean/remove moisture and re-seal. Use the Orion V2 LED Angeleyes DIY for instructions to open your headlight assembly.
How bad is the moisture? I'm sure they can be cleaned.

Hi and
. I don't think you can possibly do the swap without opening both bi-xenon and halogen headlights. So just open your
bi-xenon headlights and clean/remove moisture and re-seal. Use the Orion V2 LED Angeleyes DIY for instructions to open your headlight assembly.
How bad is the moisture? I'm sure they can be cleaned.
