This mod is amazing....I want it ! Updates the front end brilliantly. With the HID kit in place, I can't tell a difference between this look and the LCI xenon...can anyone ?
You got your LCI halogen headlights for 400 Euros from the site you've linked above? That sounds well cheap for new headlights if that's for a pair.
I could not find my way around that site too well as I could not find an English version. A link to the page with the lights on it would be great..thanks. Oh and well done as you have no errors

My Ride: 2006 520d - 19" 172s- Remapped - LCI taillights V6 cables - LCI xenon headlights - Denison 500 with BTA1500 - led interior lights - OEM led number plate lights
Planned mods:
Folding mirrors - Modmynav kit - High gloss shadowline trim -
Expecting the parts sometime next week, i will start building the first plugs in the weekend.
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

I've got a HID kit from John (brabus) so that should be perfect.

You can check on my first page there are pics of OEM lights, only the sticker is a bit diferent, no BMW logo and that saves the bucks.
EU spec lights have the left light set a bit lower as the right
Install the EU spec lights and have them adjusted by a shop to UK specs, should work.

Oh and well done as you have no errors The stealer had a pair of LCI Halogens lying around from an order almost 2 years ago, the buyer never showed up, thats why i got them so cheap.
But 562 Euro's is a good deal.
Can't link directly to the items.
In the left corner you find a searchbox named Teilnummer
Enter 1EL-009-449-011 and press Finden (Search)
Same for the second light but then 1EL-009-449-021

For those who drive on the wrong side of the road 
from the HELLA UK online catalogue
1LL 009 449-031 and 1LL 009 449-041
but they dont sell them on ersatzteile (the above link) try to search a HELLA dealer near your location.
