If I were you, I would look around for a while before you pay full price. I got mine from someone who was selling his max and parting his mods--$72.50 shipped for the lights/bulbs! Good luck.

search this board; there are MANY posts about this that'll help you out
the search works well now so try it out

anyway, any 3 series from 91-95 (or whatever years around there are in that gen - check bimmer.org and you can figure out the years)

What you need are the headlights from an E36 BMW. 2-door, 4door, 318, 325, 328, M3 all use the same light.

well now here is a new question

i am wondering if this is going to come with the bmw harness? i need one and if anyone can help me find the harness i would definatly appreciate it. i cannot find one locally and need someone to find me some for my conversion. From what i understand, i need a pair of 9006 and 9007 harnesses. but not sure. if anyone can get me some i will gladly work with them to arrange shipping. closest parts to me is 2 hours away and in another state and i dont have that kinda time. im not getting these in the mail till next week so help me before then please.
