Are Euro glass lenses compatible with NA OEM headlights?
Topic question. Couldn't find anyone who has asked this question. Also the guy has them for 250 on craigslist.
How much should I buy them for? |

If it's CL I gather it's local.
I can't answer your question but if I were you I would grab a few tools and go find out.

Re: Are Euro glass lenses compatible with NA OEM headlights?
No, the euro lenses do not fit on NA headlights. Are these lenses for sale new or used?

Looks like FCP now carries replacement lenses. They look to be ZKW style.

Re: Are Euro glass lenses compatible with NA OEM headlights?
From the description:
"Upgrade you (sic) pitted, foggy plastic headlights to these clearer, harder plastic lenses." But the product name says "BMW Headlight [Left/Right] (Glass E36)"... I wonder if it's glass or plastic.

Re: Are Euro glass lenses compatible with NA OEM headlights?
Hahaha, I know. I sent em an email for some pics. I wonder if I can detach the glass from the plastic surrounds and then use some silicone to glue the glass on to the BOSCH surrounds.
 $60 a pop is not bad.
