e46 M3 driver's side headlight

Thanks! Just checked on the parts website and they do appear to have the same part number for the right hand side alright (63 12 7 165 822). The left hand side is different, probably to do with the ballast not being on the headlight in the M3. I'll have a look on ebay later.

You can gut the carcass of a standard halogen headlamp and swap over your xenon parts

I should have a good one (halogen) if your interested btw

Hmm.. didn't think you could do that. Sounds like a lot of work but could work out a lot cheaper. The cheapest xenon headlight I can see on ebay is €282. Would the halogen headlight housing have the connections to hold the HID ballast?
