Headlights on e36???

Recommended Posts

Does any one know if the headlights on an E36 are interchangable between a 2 door coupe and a 4door sedan?

as far as I know the only difference is the corner light

would pay to check also if they are facelift lights... facelift lights have dimples on the lenses and are made for 96 onwards, so I'm not sure but you may have conflicts putting them into pre-fl E36's.

Ring up Team McMillan on (09) 524 3300 and talk to their parts department, they will be able to give you a definate answer straight up, as long as they are not aftermarket lights.

I am quite sure that the main light is the same throughout the production period and body shape. Just the corner light is different.

They're interchangeable among all E36s. Some people actually prefer the non-dimpled to the dimpled 'facelift' ones as it's easier to mount eyelids without the dimples.

$350 reserve?

Can almost order something more decent, like Depo projectors from eBay or something.

Mine? Hell no, no cheap one piece lights for me! Arctic Grey E36 here :)

It's possible to dremel down the nipples, but it might not look that great unless you cover it up with eyelids.
