HID upgrade
 

So I'm sure this has come up, but I HATE my 2013 CMs halogen headlights.bive upgraded to 4150K PIAA lamps both high and low beams. They still suck!:mad:

So what's the best/easiest way to upgrade my current lights. I can't drive at night without using the fogs. Otherwise, the black asphalt is just that--black.:sad:

Obviously, I could never afford buying from the dealer but I see lots on eBay, most without ballasts. Affordable, but the way to go?

Help is always appreciated all.:grin:

There are many many threads on this. Do a search

^^ This ^^

You will need something like this:

Ouch
 

I kinda figured I'd get the "do a search thing". No worries. I will.:impatient:

Very nice
 

Thanks for the great links, especially Pelican Parts. Pretty reasonable upgrades I think.:thumbsup:
At least YOU gave me something to go on.:nod:

I would get the factory Xenon upgrade kit: You get the projector housing and the , correct cut off , and they are bi- Xenon ( Xenon hi and low beam ) . Plug and play , juts need coded afterwards by MINI dealership. Or some people have used NCS expert to code them.

Also the housings are black.

If you really want better light and a great look, the 25 W factory Xenon upgrade is well worth it IMO. I bought mine from ECS, installed them myself and had them coded at the dealer for 100 bucks. The light output withe Xenons is night and day vs. the weak a$$ halogens.

I know the car in the picture! LOL! Seriously, though, the difference is truly night and day. Go for the factory upgrade and you won't regret it.

Asktheteach - Yea, looks awesome with the new 25w xenon kit. :)
