They are originally an aftermarket headlight - not built for anything but a retrofit. You can't easily buy them on eBay or on the web in general. We had them delivered to us special - not to say the manufacturer can't deliver to others, but this is a one time one off for us exclusively for now.

They are with FXR V2 projectors but can be configured for less or more depending on the the type of projector and/or shroud chosen.
We recommend the E46 shroud or no shroud for now.

They are currently amber, we may be offering an upgrade to white for an extra fee. However the good news for you all is that if you choose to do the changing yourselves, the headlights bake open and don't require cutting.

They can't fit because they have Pre-LCI plugs. So you'd have to reconfigure all your plugs for them to work. Fitment wise, of course they fit, but otherwise, no.

The projectors are larger than that. Don't have the measurements here but they are listed on the site in the projectors section for the FXR V2.0

And that they aren't. They are originally made in Taiwan, but fully remanufactured here in the US. They are like the Toyota Tundra in this respect, lots of parts from around the world, but made in USA

They are officially on pre-order for the price on the site. All preorders will be available for shipping by Jan 10th latest but likely December 20th roughly.

I have no clue about fitment or how well the projectors will work but at face value they looked near OE quality.
They are just like our Projector39 Hella Type units, OE quality fit and finish throughout.
Here's how our P39s look on an M5:

We will get some as soon as all 4 headlights are finished for existing pre-orders and we get another drop in visitor for them by end of next week.

They come standard with Canbus 35W and FXR V2.0 and Orion V2. $650 is the pre-order price for them right now and you will just wait, otherwise, the final ready out the door price will be more. If you have pre-LCI xenon adaptive, these are not the lights for you. You will lose adaptive etc. These are intended entirely for the halogen 2004-2007 buyers who don't want to pay $1500 for a set of OE xenon lights.

Would it be possible to buy these from you with the HIDs, but without the Orions?

I already have a set of H7 HIDs in my pre-LCI halogens low beams, I assume I can just put those into these new healdights?

Halogen/Incandescent lights don't have adaptive or auto-level, so that is why these lights don't have it.
We may press depending on how successful these are with a version for active and auto level but it's not on the table yet.

We have no plans to offer without Orion V2.
They will accept only D2S, not H7.

That would be fine too as long they come with the D2S bulbs + balasts.

Are there any other photos? Perhaps of some forum members installs?
The lens in the photos above looks really small compared to OEMs.

==>

Can it be gotten in a bigger size?

We are exploring using the EVO-X lenses, but they are a lot more expensive at almost $60 more.
We should have photos on a car next week.
