hi,

new at posting here!
my question is anyone has experience with dectane headlights? completely replace E60's hella headlights, with dectane's version.
it comes with LED angel eyes and a projector xenon look lens. Now I drive a 2005 520D E60 with halogen headlights (running with a pilotxenon HID kit, reflector lenses and LED angeleyes)
i want to replace this for a more OEM-look.

(i know it says E90, but looking at the shape, no doubt its for a E60)

any suggestions and comments?

Those look... Interesting.

Not sure what I think about them. I'm curious to see how they'd look like on the actual car though.

I do kinda agree, but to fit LCI lights isn't plug and play, im not capable enough to be able to fit them properly withouth errors showing on the dash.
therefore im looking for a more plug and play option

Just an update for those of you waiting for the E60 FXR that we are introducing. We will have our first prototypes ready for install later today or early tomorrow.

The ones pictures on Dectane's site are actually from SONAR, we will also have those available, but we do not recommend them due to poor quality angel eyes (we'll upgrade them) and poorer (though not horribly so) quality light output. We will offer you 2 solutions very soon.
