what are better lights?

whats up guys,

i was wondering if i can get some differnt types of pictures from anyone with them handy. i was looking for a picture of a 3rd gen max with regular stock headlights and its beam and coverage. the other picture is of a max with e36 headlights and again, its beam and coverage.

i just need them for comparison.

thanx everyone

this probably doenst help very much, but get BMW projectors, they're worth every penny. and with xenon (HID), nothing compares(except maybe porsche/audi projectors)

thanx for the advice!

this past weekend i just put in D2S HIDs and i wanted to show you guys some comparison pictures but i dont know whats up with my digi cam but for dark shots it opens the iris longer and it makes the stock headlights look really really bright. i didnt want to use that picture with the HID picture because it looks almost the same. The camera makes the exposures equal and i dont have a regular old school film camera with me at the moment....

...maybe ill try to do a video....but then id have to swap the stock ones back in....

well, if you have the pics and dont mind, you can even just email it to me and ill see what i can do.

thanx

..........

hmmm....i can see how the title is a little missleading. i originally was ready to post all the pics but then i decided not to because of the shots and i wanted to ask for pics and i guess i forgot to change the title.

please get at very least BMW reflectors. xenons in stock housings are absolute garbage both for you and oncoming drivers(IMHO). read the daniel stern lighting FAQ, its very educational. once you get HIDs in properly designed projectors, you'll wonder how you survived with reflectors of any kind at all.
sorry i dont have any pictures of the actual light, my cardomain site has a few pictures of the lights installed but thats about it.
