Headlights OEM BMW or OEM Honda
For headlights there a tons of options. Personally I went with an OEM style with black housings, but you can find a bunch on ebay. Just be prepared for the clearcoat to wear out on them after 3 or so years if it lives outside.
Pros: OEM style, black housings
Cons: clearcoat wears out
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
I’ve had people flash their lights at our new Honda because they think the high beams are on. I feel bad but what am I supposed to do? That’s how the thing came from Honda.
Pros: new Honda, bright lights
Vehicle:
Honda
So the headlights on my BMW are so much better than headlights I’ve had in previous cars. They illuminate the road so much better.
Pros: illuminate road better
Vehicle:
BMW
The LEDs are a massive upgrade for a Honda.
Pros: massive upgrade
Vehicle:
Honda
Overall I like the new Prelude design, but the front IMO is the weakest element as this post highlights. Just not as clean as I think they could have done.
Pros: like the new design
Cons: front is weakest element
Vehicle:
Honda Prelude
Here\u2019s one, my 21 BMW 218 has quite high dims. I regularly get flashed to dim my light when they are dimmed. There is no dial / setting on the car that I\u2019m aware of to adjust this. I asked BMW and they said I\u2019d need to leave it in (which will cost \u20ac300 or something ridiculous).
Pros: high dims, regularly flashed
Cons: no setting to adjust
Vehicle:
BMW
When driving my '18 Honda Civic i get flashed for having my high beams on pretty regularly when I don't.
Cons: blinding to others
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
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?
Cons: condensation inside, poor quality control
Vehicle:
BMW
My wife\u2019s 2020 118i headlight had the yellow issue in one. Non-dealer bmw shop quoted us $3,500 but we had to do both for $7,000. About 50% of the residual value of the car, for a yellow headlight.
Cons: yellow issue
Vehicle:
BMW
Replacing a single headlight on our BMW x5 was $7,500.
