I'm looking to buy both of these, does anyone currently have them installed? And is 500 total for both sets a good price? Will the headlights work for bi-xenon adaptive headlights?

From the pictures, the headlights look like they're halogen light assemblies. What is your current set up and why are you replacing them? Do these headlights have the clear corners?

I can't tell from my crappy laptop but it looks like the headlights are not bi-xenon. So, you currently have bi-xenon headlights and would like to swap them out for non-bi-xenons which happen to have the clear sides. Is that a correct assessment?

I can't tell if they're LEDs from the picture. Maybe one of the guys who have LED lights already can comment. What about asking the seller?

The rear lights are stock. I have seen the LED rear lights on Rizbel's 545i.
