M5 european spec headlight assembly - The Unofficial BMW M5 Messageboard (m5board.com)

Has anyone managed to see if the dealership could order their M5's with the european spec clear lenses headlight (angel eyes) assembly rather than the amber ones? I think it's crazy that they offered clear lenses on M5's for 2000 (with a little amber piece) whereas for 2001 they're all amber. I would much rather go with the clear lenses straight from the factory then to order them from aftermarket shops.

Thanks!

Mine Beast is European model.I went to BMW of Brazil,asked if it's possible to change the front headlight and rear light for 2001 model.My is 2000 model.They can change my lenses form 2000 to 2001 model but it cost here 3000 dollars...they are crazy...you need to change all headlight it's impossible to change only the lenses(this is wath they told me)
Well good luck.

atomic80, Try [url=http://bekkers.com/category.php3?lights[/URL] I think they have just the light housing for sale. You have to change the complete housing if you want the clear corner lenses. You do not have to purchase the xenon lights and accessories, just the lens housing unit.
