Headlights OEM BMW or Tesla
Took my first drive tonight and DANG! These are so amazing! It’s really neat to see them in action first hand.
Pros: amazing, neat to see
Just finished my retrofit upgrade to Matrix headlights on my 2023 MX. It’s really neat to see them in action first hand.
Pros: amazing, neat to see
I hit a deer with an X5 and except for a small piece of missing trim, you couldn't even tell from 10ft away and it was over $10k. One headlight was replaced because the lower mounting tabs on it were broken.
Pros: repaired like new
Cons: expensive repair
Vehicle:
BMW X5
I like it both ways. The twins give it a more sporting/race vibe, and the chrome singles are classic and charming. Good thing it is an interchangeable part!
Pros: sporting/race vibe
Cons: classic and charming
Headlights look good, it will be a classy front end.
Rear/ look a bit commical. Anime character angry squint tail lights. Even with a light bar, it wouldnt look much better.
Pros: classy front end
Cons: comical rear lights
Vehicle:
BMW M2
For tesla folks - Older Teslas are just kinda like that with their headlights. I used to have a 2019 Model 3 and I got high-beam-notified _constantly_. They fixed it in 2021.
Pros: fixed in 2021
Cons: high-beam-notified constantly
Seeing fewer Teslas on the road, with their blinding headlights, has been a relief.
Cons: blinding headlights
Tesla are the worst. Honda is next.
Pros: null
Cons: terrible designs, danger on road
My BMW has had very few engine issues…what it has had is a lot of weird and very expensive high tech issues…for example one of the day time running lights went bad because moisture got into the circuit board…this requires a new headlight fixture which was $4k…I just don’t use the DRLs anymore…expect these types of problems to slowly kill your soul
Pros: few engine issues
Cons: expensive high tech issues
Vehicle:
BMW
Bad quality plastic. Mine are same on the inside, it looks like a million tiny cracks. I'd say it's due to age and wear.
Pros: due to age and wear
Cons: bad quality plastic
Vehicle:
BMW
