get a kit from jhonathan and you won't have issues with the headlamp doors staying up when you turn off your lights.

My kits aren't expensive especially with the support and service you receive with each purchase. We cover each component for a year also. Things happen and you don't want to be stuck with a defective kit like a lot of the guys that went with ebay are finding out.

HIDplanet.com is a good shop for projectors and other OEM HID components. Their Forum is a wealth of knowledge on high end optics....it's where i learned most of what i know about quality headlights.

Another good site for the same stuff is theretrofitsource.com
I bought my E55 projectors from there for a steal. They came with the AFS controls but so far nobody knows how to build an AFS setup into a car that wasn't originally equipped with one.
