my 93 525I did not come with ellipsoids, my question is I see used sets on ebay all the time with chipped glass or sandblasted lenses.
Can I purchase a used set and change the lense ??? or do I have to buy the whole light assembley??

You can replace the lens for about $50 each.
BTW, I have a set of ellips (US model) with good lens, good reflectors I'll sell. Contact me at jsnord@hotmail.com if interested.

I think you mis-understood what I was asking. My question was if I buy a used set of ellipsoids on ebay with sandblasted or chipped lenses. Could I purchase new lenses and replace the bad ones for the ellisoids, not buy ellipsoid lenses and put them on my current lights.
