OK guys, I was thinking tonite that a couple of months ago I saw a HID kit that was taken off an audi. I am thinking it included the ballasts and the bulbs. Im thinking with a little modification, those bulbs could fit in our 90mm's. But I am guessing we would need some sort of new connector so the bulbs would hook up with our harnesses. What do you guys think?

For everybody that's interested in doing this upgrade, I have posted a preliminary write-up on this, I've gotten up to the low beam installation written. I will try to get the high beam portion done soon! I've been getting some emails now and then from people doing this upgrade so apparently it's getting some attention!

what about this low beams and the square high beams, I think that would look good.

However, I think it looks much better with both low and highs round. JMHO though...

Did anyone else who did this mod feel as though it was a very tight fit to fit the new hellas. Seems like mine is touching my bumper, and since so, may be aimed a bit high when I get it all said and done. Was that just my experience, or have you other people experienced that as well. If they were 80mm or 85 mm I believe it would have fit better.

Thanks Sam. As you know ive been working on mine and had the whole weekend off. Myself and a buddy decided to make a whole new setup for the front. We had to custom make a front bracket thing. Took the whole saturday and sunday. Im hoping to be able to finish it tomorrow. I can post some pics on here or send some to you. I cant wait.
Also, are these the houseings that new BMW's use. I look at the headlights of beamers and they look like the same housings. Ill try and repost on here tomorrow after we hopefully finish.
