If so you need to get infinity Q45 projectors they allow you high beams to function because the upper part of that projector has a high cut off line.


Any BI-XENON could be used as Hi-Low beams. Go to hidplanet and research there, a lot of good info.



And for Wang2k, good luck man.




I did my homework already and not to mention my neighbor drives an m3 and it has a separate blub for high and low beam look at the link i posted. i couldn't get a picture of her car but this will have to do.

so i can wire these up with the stock harness(with upped fuses) and it will work like the stock lights(high low) right? I wish someone could send me a shot of how their projectors are mounted...man if only someone could do that...they would really be awesome...dang man i dont have any to look at...this sucks having to figure it out on my own.


astro...i need your help bud. from one black SEV6SC on black rims(stick too!) to another(LOL) how did they mount the projectors in ure lights?

dude you do not need to get differant projectors if those are bi-xenon your fine

and when I looked at your projectors it looks like there is a motor with the lil shield that flips up your fine with those no need to spend $$ on BS
