Hey guys... I am planning to buy a xenon headlight projector (probably from ebay)...

Anyone have experience and bought these before?
or should I just keep old halogen headlight...

 

are you buying bulbs or an entire new housing?

 

entire housing!

 

Some aftermarket housings will cancel the high beams, I have a friend that has spec D brand and they look really nice in black specially the angel lights, they don't look tacky or out of place at all, he still has halogens on them but with a Bi xenon kit from the retrofit source that should fix the problem. Choose the housing that you want to get and give TRS a call they will tell you what you need to do the job

 

I was thinking of Spec D too. They looked nice..

What does TRS mean..? I should find a shop that can install... I don't think I can do harness work..

Here is a pic of my buddy's R56 is a crappy cellphone pic at dusk so no quality :-)

 

I was thinking to buy http://www.ebay.com/itm/8000K-HID-XENON-BLK-DRL-LED-HALO-PROJECTOR-HEAD-LIGHTS-SIGNAL-07-12-MINI-COOPER-/171273073656?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Model%3ACooper&hash=item27e0abb3f8&vxp=mtr
something like this from ebay.

Then... should I buy mini morimoto to change and lens??
I am bit confused... sorry

 

They look very cool, no worries I was confused as he'll too, basically 8K will be too blue 5k or 6K is what you want for clear white light. But to be honest TRS will give you the best advise as long as you tell them what you want to do their warranty is also very good, 3 to 5 years depending on what you are getting, you could use the ones on that kit but I bet the HID and the ballast are not that great but since they come as a kit you may use them and then upgrade to Morimotos later
