    UNless you have practically no wear on them, change both. With 460s they are probably more worn than they at first appear if you measure tread depth with lincoln's head vs a new one.

    change the front two, save up to change the back two (which will be the new front two) by the next oil change/ tire rotation interval.

    cuse i dont feel liek dumping a shitton of wiring into the engine bay to correct it....
    It's 4 wires per headlight and most only need one relay to correct it. It's an easy install and cheap to do. You can buy the relay and harness for under 20 bucks. I can send you a set if you want.

    As for 60 bucks for a headlight adjustment, thats gay. You should look into how to do it yourself. It's takes 2 minutes.

    Default Why don't you aim them yourself???

    If you can wire them in, aiming them is certainly within your capabilities. Go to www.bmwe34.net. In the left menu, go to: maintenance>electrical system>headlight adjustment. I've been messing with my headlights the last couple of weeks. I've adjusted mine using my garage door to shine them on. Not too difficult. I'd rather pay the dealer for the stuff I can't do.

    Grace and peace,
