I can also confirm the Hella headlights are the same quality as oe
I just replaced both of my assemblies with Hella's from FCP. cost me about $260 for both housings and they came with all the bulbs. just make sure all of the bulbs are installed properly. one of my projector beams was not snapped in all the way so the cut-off didnt looks right. Just had to re-seat the bulb.
As GTI's indicated (and he must have known I'd jump in ), that beam pattern is perfectly normal for OEM Mk5 halogen reflector headlights.
Not sure about the taillights, but the OEM headlights are made by Hella. I would recommend you search for Hella brand headlights.
JDM Honda Inspire lights are amazing and are equal to USDM Accord lights if you're willing to spend a bit of money.
This is good to hear. While anything will be better than my 11 year old hazy Honda Fit headlights, the brighter LED’s will really help on our dark, rural, hilly roads.
They are not dim, but they are not the brightest LEDs ive seen, thats for sure.
But by no means are they dim
Hella offers headlights that function the same as OE but without the BMW stamp and perhaps slightly less bright.
i dont like 2 separate headlights because in the dark it can look like a car thats just really far away. this might lead to a higher chance of someone turning out in front of you.
I agree with this completely. The dim headlights have bothered me so much I’m already looking at new cars. I have, ‘24 ST. I’m chalking this up as a mistake I missed and will have to pay for.
