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 H4 e-code conversion beam, full stop. Can run whatever H4 bulb you want, including LED retrofits if you want (don’t cheap out, I recommend Morimoto) but I find a good quality halogen bulb like Osram Nightbreaker Lasers are as good as if not better than most LED retrofits without requiring a harness upgrade.
I put a set of euro Hellas on my golf years ago. The US light performance was very good for the time but the euro lights were so much better.
Doesn't have to be OEM, Hella is most likely the manufacturer
Upgrade those headlights to e-codes. Keeps the OEM look and the beam pattern is way nicer and you can see way more on the road. I have hella brand ones and it is quite literally night and day.
Hella’s are a great brand
Hella offers headlights that function the same as OE but without the BMW stamp and perhaps slightly less bright.
That’s terrible, but I’m not surprised. The lens on my 992 cracked and Porsche wanted $6300 for a new headlight (they don’t sell just the lens).
My indy Porsche mechanic told me they had to charge a Cayenne owner 3500+ to replace a headlight. He said even the headlight has a microchip now. Just unnecessary complexity.
