Angel Eyes question
Can I use angel eyes from a set of facelift lights in a set of pre 2001 euro xenon?

I've got the whole angel eyes kit from 2001-2003 car, and was wondering if it will fit.

Fart-

I can't see why that would not work. I swapped a set of US-spec xenon angel eyes for my MY2000 plain xenons, then took the OE xenons from my car and installed them in my brother's 98 E39 540i/6, swapping for his OE halogens.

Both situations were pretty much 'plug-and-play.' Furthermore, a number of US M5ers bought Euro-spec xenon angel-eye units early on from places like Bekkers, and they worked just fine. So I do believe that sticking a set of current Angel Eyes into a MY99-00 euro-spec Beast should be very straighforward.

That's the best info I can share without acutally having done the swap myself!
