i would be careful... anyone serious about this should ask him put his name in the pic with his actual product and send that to you btw... this should prob be a new thread... this is a diff product entirely EDIT: 4/20 monday am - his actual rings... he's in china - he confirmed the first 2 pics were lifted off other sites. i guess he realized if you post pics of oss raptor rings as your lead-in pic, it WILL get people's attention Last edited by squidlyboy; 04-20-2015 at 08:27 AM.. |

Id just be cautious as you'd be the guinea pig as he doesn't seem to have any install yet, and the fact that he's shamelessly stealing others images doesn't send a very trustworthy

What's the worst that could happen fitting LHD lights to a RHD car? |

I guess LHD would fail MOT, something to do with beam pattern & direction? |

Headlights showed up last night. I can confirm that the quality of these is OEM level. Very nice looking units. The other thing that impressed was the packaging. Very well protected and unlikely any would ever show up damaged.
I'm camping this weekend, so install will have to wait. Excited to see some pics on white and LED bulbs to decide what I want to do (hint, hint @goon and @ro_F30) Jimbo |

back to the drawing board. won't need an mot for another year or two, would these lights void the warranty? how hard is it to take the headlights apart and fit the rings shown further back? |

Your best bet is to just get the LHD model of the headlights and install them. If you're not pleased with the beam pattern, use the screws in the headlight to manually adjust the aim of the beam. It's very simple to do. |

I'm guessing not bmw f30 headlights ... lol Its one thing to open butyl rubber sealed headlights, entirely another matter to cut through perma-sealed (heat resistant) headlights. Biggest pita thing i've had to do (still doing) on my car... it'll be worth it though

YES
Everytime an F30 headlight is opened, a little bell rings in heaven, an angel earns his wings, you are required to post a pic, the date and the time are noted, you earn 10 rep points, and you earn the right to scream at the top of your lungs... YAAAAAWWWWWLLLLLL
now the fun part begins Sorry... now back to the original topic (Btw.. if it helps, your butyl rubber sealed eagle eyes will prob be MUCH easier to open than these...) |

Well I got an email from ProTuning this morning stating my chrome lights were on back order and could be delayed as much as 4 weeks! So I cancelled the order and ordered another set from revotec on eBay. Expected delivery is April 30th.

highbeam and the outer ring is lowbeam (direct plug and play). I was hoping for this version, but I guess they are out of stock now... the new ones (the ones from ebay) are the LED DRL version for the inner ring projector |
