... what the title says: Has anyone taken apart their headlamps to remove the amber Reflector???
I dont have enough money laying around to buy Euro Headlamps, and No Offense, but the Euro stickers were one of the WORST mods I've ever done to a car.
I want to see if anyone has tried this to either the xenon on regular halogen headlamps.

Trust me, Its not an easy feat. You are better off buying the Euro headlights, because you'll probably mess up the headlight trying to take it apart to take off the reflective amber.
I've tried the oven method and it doesn't work. Doesn't even budge. You can look for euro headlights at BMW used parts stores online. Try googling it and you'll find some. Good luck man.
