Spyder halogen projector headlights, used in good condition. I purchased these a little over two years ago. They work great and can be wired into the front position lights to act as DRL. I replaced the halogen bulbs with H11 (H8/H9) 6000K HID Xenon bulbs and ballast. If you opt to use the included HID bulbs you will need to code out the bulb voltage check warning with Bimmercode, Carly for BMW or NCS expert. If using the halogen bulbs, no coding is necessary. The shipping boxes measure 14.5x15.25x21.5 and weigh 9lbs each, so factor that into the shipping cost. Flexible on the price, I know the shipping sucks.

Product description from ECS:

Quote:

For cars equipped with factory Halogen headlights. These headlights are designed to resemble the later Gen 3 F56/F55 MINI OEM HID Projector headlights while utilizing H9 high and low beam bulbs (Bi-Halogen). Featuring high impact plastic lenses with black housing, these lights use an LED DRL and black exterior design.

*Not designed for MINIs with Xenon headlights.

Plug-and-play. Add Ziza H9 bulbs for multiple output colors.

Dummy washer jet cap already included - factory halogen headlights do not have headlight washers.

Features:

Manually adjustable leveling
E-code cutoffs on the projector for left-hand drive models; motorized for Hi/Low beam with Bi-Halogen setup
Black matte housing design
Includes H9 Projector bulbs
Includes PY21 Turn signal bulb
Also includes Upper ring in LED DRL with separate wiring
DOT & SAE approved

*Do not contain headlight washers

Edited to add some photos of the lights in operation.

Left is the 25w Bi-Xenon OEM retrofit, Right is F56 Style Spyder headlight. As you can see, F56 style light is a little on the blue side. The bulbs are pretty cheap on Amazon, so you can play around and find what works for you. The first two photos show the brightness of the LED ring, the third photo is with the headlights on. The light on the left is the 25w Bi-Xenon OEM retrofit not the F56 lights. I didn't want to switch both out for the photo, I figure just the one gives a good idea of how they function.
