Apexcone HID kits for $50. never had any experience with Apexcone but im a member on e46fanatics.com as well (used to have an e46) and the guys there are saying pretty good things about them.
heres the thread from e46fanatics:
e46fanatics thread
heres the link for the product:
Apexcone HID Bulbs for $50
i think im going to order the 6000k, its only $50 bucks!!!
btw: im pretty sure the guys with halogens can use these as headlights as well, just get the correct bulb size.

So $50 its just the bulbs or the whole hid kit? (ballasts etc) Sounds toooo good to be true...
the whooole kit my friend
check out the pics on the e46fanatics thread, people are pretty happy with them man. you could get the 55w kit for $75 if you need it to be brighter but they say if you do that the fogs will be brighter than the headlights. so many guys just stick with the 35w to even out the look.
once i order/install them ill post pics...a friend of mine is getting a 6000k 35w kit for his headlights as well

just spoke with a rep at DDM, he said most like we will need the light-out cancellors which cost an additional $40, he said for some reason on the e46 they dont trigger them but on the e60 he thinks it will. he wasnt for certain but said most likely. damn i thought we had a good thing going here
maybe ill be the guinea pig for you guys

Good luck and keep us posted on your results. Hopefully they'll last long. The kit i got burnt out after about a month's use.

I got my 6000K kit from Trinity and they are PERFECT! And for the price, you can't beat it. Give Joe or Nerwyll a ring. You'll be amazed at their prices.
