Have you fitted a HID kit to both headlights?

the look, it changes the whole front-end.
Some pics during install:
Remove slider from old plug (put it back on the pre LCI)

Carefully align the pins and be sure that they are in the right place (pin 1 is empty on both plugs)

Connect the second plug for the light regulator and don't forget to strap

I want this look!!!!!
I need to start looking for LCI halogen headlights.
How long do you think it will take to make the cables for us (once everything has been tested and working).

For the LCI hallo's you can buy them here for 280.94 Euro / piece (shipping included for Europe)
Search for 1EL-009-449-011 and 1EL-009-449-021 under Teillenummer....................... Finden
Bought from them several parts and they are A+ sellers (note to me: must ask discount next time)
If you go for HID like me, invest in the Pilot Pro Line Kit 6000K for BMW

Must search for that to confirm but i think that adding a wire to pin 1 will do it, as the leveling is done by the same built-in light regulator your car just have a extra levelingmodule in the trunk.
Edit: I see now you are talking about adaptive xenon's, really don't know about that, will search for it.
