Depo lights from rockauto. Good quality and look like oe
I would rewire it myself if everything is accessible, otherwise maybe get new headlights, got myself some new one from DEPO.
the depot headlights have been great for me and wayyyyy less than replacement stock ones cost.
I’ve finally pulled the trigger on getting the original US Sealed Beam headlights swapped out for some new Euro/WW Composite glass-lens units. The install was super smooth and straightforward. I found a pair of new DEPO headlights on eBay. The new DEPOs came with a janky headlight wiring adapter but, I opted for a OEM-quality install with 2 new 6-pin headlight connectors. The headlights have full functionality including the W3W City Lights which I soldered in.
Just search for e-code headlights. I have Depo and they're fine, but not as nice as OEM Valeo.
Those HID bulbs are clip H1 housing type and the US style lights won't fit because they are twist 9005/9006 housing. You need the glass depo/zkw/bosch type to fit those H1 bulbs
I bought a used 2021 BMW 5 series. I live in a rural area without streetlights, so it’s pitchblack on curvy 50mph roads lined with trees dropping limbs and large animals crossing. These headlights are dangerous. Can’t see without my high beams, yet there are oncoming cars every 3 seconds. I’m left driving blind half the time.
that Depo crap isn't worth the work
don't spray ANY harsh cleaner on those Depo's. Soap and water only and make sure you put some kind of UV protectant after every wash. Depos are good until they aren't, you can search this on the GXOR main group page on FB to see what happens 8-12 months with Depo bc they use the cheapest and thinnest lenses which will yellow and get stress cracks from the sun and heat if you don't care for them. Don't let the honeymoon phase fool you, there is a reason why Depo's are significantly cheaper than OEM NOS. I had the same sport depo's on my 470, and after 2yrs they were trashed.
Can't believe this is a "sealed unit" that managed to get condensation inside from driving through a puddle. What is BMW's QC coming to?
