    Anthony,

    any more info on this available? I'm assuming you cut the black line. That simple? Also, I'm installing HID at the same tim as going to ellip[soids (from the free-form).

    Interesting

    I have the exact same issue with the low beams on my 1989 535i. Purchased these Wagners BriteLite Xenons but found no real improvment. Just looking for a simple bulb change. If you find one please post it.

    The ellipsoids on my 95 are more than adequate in stock form. I just bought some smiley lenses on ebay cause I like the way they look. I'm going to convert the bulb to fit them.

    Same problem, did the 9005 conversion and it didn't light up any more than usual, so I bought euro lamps and 6000k HID. Now I light up the world!
