significantly better than the Sylvania OE ones for light output, but with an OE style cutoff so you don’t blind other drivers.
i have the hellas; im extremely satisfied with their quality and output
Definitely not the most popular choice but I had beat oem headlights and couldn\u2019t see a damn thing and you\u2019re not gonna catch me spending $500+ for bosch\u2019s just to be oem+ that don\u2019t improve visibility. Honestly pretty happy with the look and I really like the taillights.
I swapped the Hella conversions in on my '87 16V last year. These part numbers worked just fine: Low beams x2 Hella 003177862 HLMP MOD 164X103 H4 High beams HELLA 003177821 164x103mm H1 High Beam Halogen Conversion Headlamp Kit
Might be an unpopular opinion but get a pair of Hella Vision Plus (1A6002395) H4 headlights, ceramic H4 connectors and 100/90w H4 bulbs. Night and day difference without messing with the beautiful classic look.
I have bought two used headlights from ebay before and had no issues. Just make sure the part number is the same as what your car has and that the label has "hella" specified.
hella 7” lamps that take a modern LED bulb for this exact reason, looks oem but headlights actually work
Hella offers headlights that function the same as OE but without the BMW stamp and perhaps slightly less bright.
I have bosche oem lights and they have very poor performance at night.
this is not normal and happens only on modern made Hella headlights which are garbage. You will also experience extreme fading of the lens in a few years and a circle burned in from the projector shine. I've also heard about the inner black piece fading but can't say for sure because I haven't seen it myself (the other issues - I have) The quality has dropped insanely since the cars production era.
