Hey guys new to this. I've been looking around to change my headlights because I got in a small accident and now i have to buy a new front end for the car. So I have been looking at headlights now for a while and I've found a few original but used headlights for like over $300-400. And I've also loked at some nice LED DRL aftermarket ones but they only come for Halogen models only for about the same price than used originals.
My problem is that my car has the HIDs and I saw on a post that someone with an R53 model with HIDs and bought similar Halo that he claims that fit perfectly and also worked with his factory wiring harness for HIDs. He does says that of course he cant use the HIDs anymore. But that it will work just the same way with the halo bulbs.
I've found a set that I will leave the link below that has both Halo lights and also supposedly Halo with HID Bulbs. Just wondering if I buy the ones with the HIDs it would fit my car and make it work ofc.
picture attached for the guy with the R53 saying that the other lights fit and work.
