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
Had to adjust my headligts down a bit on my '24 TXT as they were blinding people. Otherwise, the headlights are outstanding.
I have a ‘25 Outback Onyx XT, and even on regular setting, oncoming traffic flashes me as if my brights are on (they aren’t). Best headlights ever.
I have a '25 Touring and the headlights are the best I've had, coming from many Ford Edges and Ford Explorers over the years.
Hella offers headlights that function the same as OE but without the BMW stamp and perhaps slightly less bright.
I have a 2024 WRX Ts top of the line Sports wagon...there is one thing I HATE about the vehicle and this in the absolute perthitic LED Crab Claw headlight. They are so bad I don't drive the vehicle at night. The lights are so bad that they are dangerous as they create a dark spot directly in front of the vehicle.
You're not the only one. The headlights in my opinion are extremely distracting and dangerous. I actually hate driving my 2025 Forester at night. I plan on getting rid of this car because of the headlight problem.
