I have an 03 MCS with xenons. Want to know if it is possible to replace my headlights with a set up from 05/06 with the projector lights. The guys at my local dealership were not forthcoming with said information.

Would like to know if anyone has experience with that. Also, if it is possible, would like to know where to get a used pair of said lights. I am located in the Houston area.

Yes you can but it is not cheep from the dealer.
Your best bet is to watch ebay for some used ones.
Make sure you get all of the hardware for the HID's not just the lights.

 

I'm going this option, it is going to work out MUCH cheaper and plus it looks good!

I have Xenons and want the newer style lights as well. I picked up a pair like they sell at moss but also added an aftermarket Xenon system to them.

 

Professor - how do you like them? Thinking of doing the same thing but unsure w/the aftermarket xenons? Which did you choose (4300 or 6000k)?

 

6000k. I have not put them in yet but will let you know when I do.

 

I got for 6k for all my HID installs. Not too white and not too blue.

 

Are these the lights being referred to: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...%3AIT&viewitem=

 

Yip, that would be it!

 

Yes. I highly doubt the quality of the HIDs are top notch but they will do untill I use a retrofit.

 

retrofit - ballast/bulbs/etc from another cooper or tsx?

 

I put a set of the newer '05-'06 Xenons (Euro spec, even) on my '04. If your car originally had Xenons - the facelift Xenons are a direct fit.

Not sure yet. Gonna wait and see how long the cheap-o ones last.
