No one has posted pics of them but I'm sure somebody will buy them. They're sooooo ugly.

I thought maybe it was a new cool thing to have those headlights. They are kind of scary looking

Those are the ugliest headlights I have ever seen. Half of the surface area is black plastic with ridges in it

it will take alot of mods to get those to fit you car. More than you want to do on an afternoon. Just go with the BMW e33 angel eye headlights if you want to change them.

Sorry for being such a newbie but I did a quick search and found no pics of them on a max. Plus I would never put ugly E36 lights in my max especially the ZWK Hy free-form ones They are just to common and a direct fit

i actually like the cefiro headlights. but i also like the good ol stockies on our maximas. if i had a second maxima to just go apesh!t with, i'd consider cutting the front end all to pieces and experimenting.

and, yes, that picture has been posted so often that we are all tired of them without having ever used them.

I am but I don't own the GTI anymore Plus I just wanted to check-up on my favorite site. The VW forums are not as fun and I really don't post over there. There are so many nicely modified 3rd gens now and it makes me miss the max community

No toy for the next 6 months I have a VW Golf R32 on deposit. It would of been a 350Z but the Nissan Dealers are all ****s that would not take me serious.

speaking of missing the max community, do you miss your max too? its actually under some kind of reconstruction (alex hasnt decided if its going to be major or minor...but the heads come off today....).
soon enough there will be two fast@$$ VE 5speeds in southern RI.

Where can you find those BMW headlights at? Are they directly from BMW's? Do they fit on directly?

Not sure if there is a place that lists more information about them but anything I could find out would be appreciated.

Yeah I do miss the max but I have calmed down my driving style since I sold it. It sucks driving a beat up 1988 camry right know but in the long run I will be happier. Only 6 more months intill I get my new car. The BMW lights in general are easy to get but the H7 free-forms ZWK lights are impossible to find. With the H7 free-forms, low beam is brighter than stock high beam.
