I am interested. Look on Inpro.com and also On ebay there is someone(german4stuff4you com or look up BMW Headlights on the search) who is selling european BMW Headlights with angel eyes and glass lenses. Look at those and talk to him.

Ok, so far I have spoke with some guy that sells on ebay, he has just the plain ole BMW headlights and says with 10 people it would be like $120 shipped. I have contacted the guy with the "Real" german headlights the eploids with angel eyes and glass front the "Top Notch" ones for $353 plus shipping, if we get 10 people. I am going to talk with Jagworks on monday, which is most likely going to be the cheapest...they sell them for $115 shipped daily and I am sure that price will drop when I talk with him, only thing is everyone was talking about how they were down on the last thread about them, but now nobody is showing any interest.

MAKE SURE you get the glass headlights, either Ellipsods, or Parabolic-Freeforms. The US spec stock ones are only a plastic front and can warp under prolonged usage! This info comes direct from BMW e36 3 series owners I have talked to. Yes the Ellips and Para-Frees by ZKW cost more, but are well worth it and will last! The Parabolic-free forms have a daytime driving 194 bulb also!

Not very easily! It would take a rock that was shot at your car to break it, and I mean a rock, NOT a pebble!

3M also makes a chip guard for the e36 headlights and I know a few people have them on DTMPOWER.net. You can get these from Beckers, Rock Mountain Motorsports, BMP Design, and several other places.

If you are asking if the Demon/Angel eyes fit the glass styled Ellipsoids, and ZKW Parabolic-Free Form E36 headlights, the answer is YES!

so if we get the glass ones then that means that they are an exact fit. because my friend got them and he got the german glass ones and he had to cut the radiatior mounts OUT and it would shake bad and made is frame bend a little. so thats what i dont want to happen

I have the larget style of them and I didn't have to cut the radiator mounts! I had to cut the frame though, just not the lateral support beam like Jon Dwyer did!
